Acyclonucleoside homologues of 1-$(\omega$-cyabnoalkyl)-and 1, 3-bis $(\omega$-cyanoalkyl) uracils were synthesized by the series of alkylation reactions of uracil with the $\omega$-chloroalkyl nitrile ${(Cl-(CH}_2)_n$-CN;n=1, 2, 3, 4) in DMSO under $50-70^circ{C}$ temperature. The 1-$(\omega$-cyanoalkyl)-and 1, 3-bis$(\omega$-cyanoalkyl) uracils were separated either by the fractional crystallization or column chromatography. The antitumor activities for these synthesized compounds were determined against four cell lines (J-82 cell, P388 cell, FM-3A cell and U-937 cell lines). These compounds failed to exhibit any significant antitumor activity.
