Synthesis and anticancer activity evaluation of 3,4-mono- and bicyclosubstituted N-(het)aryl trifluoromethyl succinimides.

ABSTRACT: Novel trifluoromethylated mono- and bicyclic succinimides derived from trifluoromethylmaleic anhydride were synthesized using cyclopentadiene or 2,3-dimethylbutadiene and (het)arylamines. The biological activity of these compounds was evaluated using prediction methods and experimental studies. This series of new trifluoromethyl succinimides (3a,b and 6a-c) were tested by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA) by Program NCI-60 DTP Human Tumor Cell Line Screen at a single high dose (10(-5) M). Imides revealed activity on Leukemia cell lines (RPMI-8226 - myeloma cell line), Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer cell lines (A549/ATCC - lung carcinoma epithelial cells) and Renal cancer cell lines (A498 and SN12C).

Synthesis of Novel 2-(Het)arylpyrrolidine Derivatives and Evaluation of Their Anticancer and Anti-Biofilm Activity.

Project description:A library of novel 2-(het)arylpyrrolidine-1-carboxamides were obtained via a modular approach based on the intramolecular cyclization/Mannich-type reaction of N-(4,4-diethoxybutyl)ureas. Their anti-cancer activities both in vitro and in vivo were tested. The in vitro activity of some compounds towards M-Hela tumor cell lines was twice that of the reference drug tamoxifen, whereas cytotoxicity towards normal Chang liver cell did not exceed the tamoxifen toxicity. In vivo studies showed that the number of surviving animals on day 60 of observation was up to 83% and increased life span (ILS) was up to 447%. Additionally, some pyrrolidine-1-carboxamides possessing a benzofuroxan moiety obtained were found to effectively suppress bacterial biofilm growth. Thus, these compounds are promising candidates for further development both as anti-cancer and anti-bacterial agents.

One-Pot Synthesis of 2-(Het)aryl/alkyl-3-cyanobenzofurans from 2-(2-Bromoaryl)-3-(het)aryl-3-(methylthio)acrylonitriles and Benzyl Carbamate.

Project description:A one-pot synthesis of 2-(het)aryl/alkyl-3-cyanobenzofurans has been reported. The overall sequence involves base-induced reaction of 2-(2-bromoaryl)-3-(het)aryl-3-(methylthio)acrylonitriles with benzyl carbamate, generating α-(het)aroyl-α-(2-bromoaryl)acetonitriles, which are in situ subjected to copper-catalyzed intramolecular O-arylation, furnishing the 2-(het)aryl/alkyl-3-cyanobenzofurans in high yields. A probable mechanism for the base-induced cleavage of 2-(2-bromoaryl)-3-(het)aryl-3-(methylthio)acrylonitriles to α-(het)aroyl-α-(2-bromoaryl)acetonitriles in the presence of benzyl carbamate has been proposed.

Discovery of 4-substituted methoxybenzoyl-aryl-thiazole as novel anticancer agents: synthesis, biological evaluation, and structure-activity relationships.

Project description:A series of 4-substituted methoxybenzoyl-aryl-thiazoles (SMART) have been discovered and synthesized as a result of structural modifications of the lead compound 2-arylthiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid amides (ATCAA). The antiproliferative activity of the SMART agents against melanoma and prostate cancer cells was improved from muM to low nM range compared with the ATCAA series. The structure-activity relationship was discussed from modifications of "A", "B", and "C" rings and the linker. Preliminary mechanism of action studies indicated that these compounds exert their anticancer activity through inhibition of tubulin polymerization.

New Succinimides with Potent Anticancer Activity: Synthesis, Activation of Stress Signaling Pathways and Characterization of Apoptosis in Leukemia and Cervical Cancer Cells.

Project description:Based on previously identified dicarboximides with significant anticancer and immunomodulatory activities, a series of 26 new derivatives were designed and synthesized by the Diels-Alder reaction between appropriate diene and maleimide or hydroxymaleimide moieties. The resulting imides were functionalized with alkanolamine or alkylamine side chains and subsequently converted to their hydrochlorides. The structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR and by ESI MS spectral analysis. Their cytotoxicity was evaluated in human leukemia (K562, MOLT4), cervical cancer (HeLa), and normal endothelial cells (HUVEC). The majority of derivatives exhibited high to moderate cytotoxicity and induced apoptosis in K562 cells. Microarray gene profiling demonstrated upregulation of proapoptotic genes involved in receptor-mediated and mitochondrial cell death pathways as well as antiapoptotic genes involved in NF-kB signaling. Selected dicarboximides activated JNK and p38 kinases in leukemia cells, suggesting that MAPKs may be involved in the regulation of apoptosis. The tested dicarboximides bind to DNA as assessed by a plasmid DNA cleavage protection assay. The selected dicarboximides offer new scaffolds for further development as anticancer drugs.

Synthesis, Structural Characterization and Anticancer Activity of New 5-Trifluoromethyl-2-thioxo-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine Derivatives.

Project description:Thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives are considered potential therapeutic agents, particularly in the development of anticancer drugs. In this study, new 7-oxo-(2a-e), 7-chloro-(3a-e) and also three 7-amino-(4a-c) 5-trifluoromethyl-2-thioxo-thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated for their potential anticancer activity. These derivatives were characterized by spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis, and the single-crystal X-ray diffraction was further performed to confirm a 3D structure for compounds 2e and 4b. The antiproliferative activity evaluation of twelve new compounds was carried out on a variety of cell lines including four human cancer (A375, C32, DU145, MCF-7/WT) and two normal cell lines (CHO-K1 and HaCaT). Four of them (2b, 3b, 4b and 4c) were selected by the National Cancer Institute and evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity using the NCI-60 screening program. 7-Chloro-3-phenyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)[1,3]thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2(3H)-thione (3b) proved to be the most active among the newly synthesized compounds.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Anticancer Activities Evaluation of Compounds Derived from 3,4-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one.

Project description:3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one compounds (DHPMs) possess extensive biological activities and are mainly prepared via Biginelli reaction and N-alkylation. In the present study, selective alkylation of N¹ was investigated by using tetrabutylammonium hydroxide. In vitro cytotoxicity study on all synthesized compounds demonstrated that introduction of the aryl chain in the R³ as well as the low electron-donating group in the R¹ of DHPMs contributed to the anti-proliferative potency. A larger value of the partition coefficient (Log P) and suitable polar surface area (PSA) values were both found to be important in order to maintain the antitumor activity. The results from in vivo study indicated the great potential of compound 3d to serve as a lead compound for novel anti-tumor drugs to treat glioma. Pharmacophore study regarding the structure-activity relations of DHPMs were also conducted. Our results here could provide a guide for the design of novel bioactive 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one compounds.

Synthesis and Anticancer Activity of Mitotic-Specific 3,4-Dihydropyridine-2(1H)-thiones.

Project description:Most anticancer drugs target mitosis as the most crucial and fragile period of rapidly dividing cancer cells. However the limitations of classical chemotherapeutics drive the search for new more effective and selective compounds. For this purpose structural modifications of the previously characterized pyridine aalog (S1) were incorporated aiming to obtain an antimitotic inhibitor of satisfactory and specific anticancer activity. Structure-activity relationship analysis of the compounds against a panel of cancer cell lines allowed to select a compound with a thiophene ring at C5 of a 3,4-dihydropyridine-2(1H)-thione (S22) with promising antiproliferative activity (IC50 equal 1.71 ± 0.58 µM) and selectivity (SI = 21.09) against melanoma A375 cells. Moreover, all three of the most active compounds from the antiproliferative study, namely S1, S19 and S22 showed better selectivity against A375 cells than reference drug, suggesting their possible lower toxicity and wider therapeutic index. As further study revealed, selected compounds inhibited tubulin polymerization via colchicine binding site in dose dependent manner, leading to aberrant mitotic spindle formation, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Summarizing, the current study showed that among obtained mitotic-specific inhibitors analogue with thiophene ring showed the highest antiproliferative activity and selectivity against cancer cells.
