The present invention reports the obtaining of carbonyl compounds and derivatives, through syntheses with high yield and purity, providing anti-humoral active principles with selective antiproliferative properties and anti-metastatic activity.

The present invention refers to the development of new polyfunctional push-pull butadienes and their O and C-prenylated, benzoylated and iodide derivatives, with high electronic conjugation in the lateral chain. These compounds exhibit high anti-tumor selectivity, causing cell death by apoptosis, also show anti-metastatic and non-mutagenic properties in the experimental studies performed.
