Basic nitrobenzenesulfonamides containing nitroisopropyl and (ureidooxy)methyl groups were prepared and evaluated as novel hypoxic cell selective cytotoxic agents. In vitro, N-(2-aminoethyl)-N-methyl-3-nitro-4-(1-methyl-1-nitroethyl)benzene sulfonamide hydrochloride (11) proved to be preferentially toxic to hypoxic EMT6 mammary carcinoma cells. At 1 mM concentration in
