Abstract
The review enumerates the physico-chemical and analytical properties of mitomycin antitumour antibiotics, of which mitomycin C is the most important representative. After a short overview of the position of the compounds in oncology the following subjects will be discussed: structural features, prototropic properties, spectroscopy (UV-VIS, ORD, CD, IR, NMR, MS), chromatography and electrochemistry. The chemical stability and aspects of the mechanism of action of the compounds are also discussed. The last part of the review surveys the analysis of mitomycin C in biological fluids.Entities:
