Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of C-7-Alkynylated and Arylated Pyrrolotriazine C-Ribonucleosides.

ABSTRACT: A number of biologically active nucleoside analogues contain the adenine isostere 4-amino-pyrrolo[2,1-f][1,2,4]triazine connected to various sugar moieties through a C-C anomeric linkage. We employed palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling chemistry to promptly functionalize the 7-position of such a heterocyclic scaffold with various alkynyl and aryl groups starting from a common 7-iodo-pyrrolotriazine C-ribonucleoside intermediate. Analogues bearing a 7-cyclopropyl-, 7-propyl-, and 7-butylacetylene moiety displayed potent cytotoxic activity, with the latest being the most selective of this series toward cancer cells. Further insights revealed that such C-nucleosides could exert their antiproliferative action by causing dose-dependent DNA damage.

Regioselective synthesis of C3 alkylated and arylated benzothiophenes.

Project description:Benzothiophenes are heterocyclic constituents of important molecules relevant to society, including those with the potential to meet modern medical challenges. The construction of molecules would be vastly more efficient if carbon-hydrogen bonds, found in all organic molecules, can be directly converted into carbon-carbon bonds. In the case of elaborating benzothiophenes, functionalization of carbon-hydrogen bonds at carbon-number 3 (C3) is markedly more demanding than at C2 due to issues of regioselectivity (C3 versus C2), and the requirement of high temperatures, precious metals and the installation of superfluous directing groups. Herein, we demonstrate that synthetically unexplored but readily accessible benzothiophene S-oxides serve as novel precursors for C3-functionalized benzothiophenes. Employing an interrupted Pummerer reaction to capture and then deliver phenol and silane coupling partners, we have discovered a directing group-free method that delivers C3-arylated and -alkylated benzothiophenes with complete regioselectivity, under metal-free and mild conditions.

Fluorescing Isofunctional Ribonucleosides: Assessing Adenosine Deaminase Activity and Inhibition.

Project description:The enzymatic conversion of isothiazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine-based adenosine (tz A) and 2-aminoadenosine (tz 2-AA) analogues to the corresponding isothiazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine-based inosine (tz I) and guanosine (tz G) derivatives is evaluated and compared to the conversion of native adenosine to inosine. Henri-Michaelis-Menten analyses provides the foundation for a high-throughput screening assay, and the efficacy of the assay is showcased by fluorescence-based analysis of tz A conversion to tz I in the presence of known and newly synthesized inhibitors.

Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of Ellagic Acid Peracetate.

Project description:Ellagic acid (1) was synthesized for the first time from methyl gallate through 3-pentagalloylglucose (α-PGG), and ellagic acid peracetate (3,4,3',4'-tetra-O-acetylellagic acid, 2) was derived from 1 by acetylation. Oral administration of 2 suppressed melanoma growth significantly in C7BL/6 immunocompetent mice without having any effect on natural killer (NK) cell activity. Comparison of the immunoenhancing activities of 1 and 2 indicated that the latter compound increased white blood cell quantities in peripheral blood and immune cells enriched from the bone marrow and liver of mice. Therefore, both the antitumor efficacy and the immunity enhancement by 2 were greater than those by 1. In addition, on oral administration neither 1 nor 2 resulted in whole body, liver, or spleen weight changes of normal, tumor-free mice, indicating that these compounds are potentially non-toxic to mice. It was shown that ellagic acid peracetate (2) inhibits B16 melanoma cell growth in vitro, and induces B16 cell apoptosis, corresponding to BCL-2 down-regulation. Collectively, the present data imply that 2 can suppress tumor growth by enhancing mouse immunity and inducing tumor cell apoptosis without apparent side effects.

Design, Synthesis, and Antitumor Activity of Novel Quinazoline Derivatives.

Project description:In an attempt to explore a new class of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors, novel 4-stilbenylamino quinazoline derivatives were synthesized through a Dimorth rearrangement reaction and characterized via IR, ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HRMS. Methoxyl, methyl, halogen, and trifluoromethyl groups on stilbeneamino were detected. These synthesized compounds were evaluated for antitumor activity in vitro against eight human tumor cell lines with an MTS assay. Most synthesized compounds exhibited more potent activity (IC50 = ~2.0 ?M) than gefitinib (IC50 > 10.0 ?M) against the A431, A549, and BGC-823 cell lines. Docking methodology of compound 6c and 6i binding into the ATP site of EGFR was carried out. The results showed that fluorine and trifluoromethyl played an important role in efficient cell activity.

Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of Triazole-Containing Sorafenib Analogs.

Project description:Using a highly effective binuclear Cu complex as the catalyst, the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions between 16 alkynes and two azides were successfully performed and resulted in the production of 25 new triazole-containing sorafenib analogs. Several compounds were evaluated as potent antitumor agents. Among them, 4-(4-(4-(3-fluorophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)phenoxy)-N-methylpicolinamide (8f) potently suppressed the proliferation of HT-29 cancer cells by inducing apoptosis and almost completely inhibited colony formation at a low micromolar concentration.

Synthesis and Antitumor Activity of New Group 3 Metallocene Complexes.

Project description:The quest for alternative drugs with respect to the well-known cis-platin and its derivatives, which are still used in more than 50% of the treatment regimens for patients suffering from cancer, is highly needed. In this context, organometallic compounds, which are defined as metal complexes containing at least one direct covalent metal-carbon bond, have recently been found to be promising anticancer drug candidates. A series of new metallocene complexes with scandium, yttrium, and neodymium have been prepared and characterized. Some of these compounds show a very interesting anti-proliferative activity in triple negative breast cancer cell line (MDA.MB231) and the non-hormone sensitive prostate cancer cell line (DU145). Moreover, the interaction of some of them with biological membranes, evaluated using liposomes as bio-membrane mimetic model systems, seems to be relevant. The biological activity of these compounds, particularly those based on yttrium, already effective at low concentrations on both cancer cell lines, should be taken into account with regard to new therapeutic approaches in anticancer therapy.

A prebiotically plausible synthesis of pyrimidine ?-ribonucleosides and their phosphate derivatives involving photoanomerization.

Project description:Previous research has identified ribose aminooxazoline as a potential intermediate in the prebiotic synthesis of the pyrimidine nucleotides with remarkable properties. It crystallizes spontaneously from reaction mixtures, with an enhanced enantiomeric excess if initially enantioenriched, which suggests that reservoirs of this compound might have accumulated on the early Earth in an optically pure form. Ribose aminooxazoline can be converted efficiently into ?-ribocytidine by way of 2,2'-anhydroribocytidine, although anomerization to ?-ribocytidine by ultraviolet irradiation is extremely inefficient. Our previous work demonstrated the synthesis of pyrimidine ?-ribonucleotides, but at the cost of ignoring ribose aminooxazoline, using arabinose aminooxazoline instead. Here we describe a long-sought route through ribose aminooxazoline to the pyrimidine ?-ribonucleosides and their phosphate derivatives that involves an extraordinarily efficient photoanomerization of ?-2-thioribocytidine. In addition to the canonical nucleosides, our synthesis accesses ?-2-thioribouridine, a modified nucleoside found in transfer RNA that enables both faster and more-accurate nucleic acid template-copying chemistry.

Synthesis of Non-Classical Arylated C-Saccharides through Nickel/Photoredox Dual Catalysis.

Project description:The development of synthetic tools to introduce saccharide derivatives into functionally complex molecules is of great interest, particularly in the field of drug discovery. Herein, we report a new route toward highly functionalized, arylated saccharides, which involves nickel-catalyzed cross-coupling of photoredox-generated saccharyl radicals with a range of aryl- and heteroaryl bromides, triggered by an organic photocatalyst. In contrast to existing methods, the mild reaction conditions achieve arylation of saccharide motifs while leaving the anomeric carbon available, thus providing access to a class of arylated glycosides that has been underexplored until now. To demonstrate the potential of this strategy in late-stage functionalization, a variety of structurally complex molecules incorporating saccharide moieties were synthesized.

Programmable synthesis of multiply arylated cubanes through C-H metalation and arylation.

Project description:Cubane (C8H8), a cubic alkane, has long attracted attention owing to its unique 3D structure. In order to utilize the cubane scaffold widely in science and technology, a powerful method for synthesizing diverse cubane derivatives is required. Herein, we report the synthesis of mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-arylated cubanes. Directed ortho-metalation with lithium base/alkyl zinc and subsequent palladium-catalyzed arylation enabled C-H metalation and arylation of cubane. This reaction allows the late-stage and regioselective installation of a wide range of aryl groups, realizing the first programmable synthesis of diverse multiply arylated cubanes.
