Abstract
A series of novel 5-fluorouracil derivatives were designed and synthesized, and the compound N1-（2-（4-Methoxy-2-nitrophenoxy）-2-dimethyl acyloxymethyl）-5-fluorouracil（C（16）H（16）FN3O8, Mr = 397.32） was structurally characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, ESI-MS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1 with a = 5.6725（7）, b = 8.7443（19）, c = 18.116（3） ？, α = 98.226（17）, β = 96.247（12）, γ = 94.318（14）°, V = 880.3（3） ？~3, Z = 2, T = 294.12（10） K, μ（Mo Kα） = 0.128 mm~（-1）, Dc = 1.499 g/cm3, F（000） = 412 and GOOF = 1.105. 5175 reflections were measured（6.868≤2θ≤52.042°）, and 3416 were unique（Rint = 0.0272, Rsigma = 0.0579） and used in all calculations. The final R = 0.0551（I 〉 2σ（I）） and w R = 0.1288（all data）. The structure of the crystal was stabilized by hydrogen bonds and the antitumor activity of the compound was analyzed by MTT assay.
