Molecular modeling based approach, synthesis, and cytotoxic activity of novel benzoin derivatives targeting phosphoinostide 3-kinase (PI3Kα)
摘要:
The oncogenic potential of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K alpha) has made it an attractive target for anticancer drug design. In this work, we describe our efforts to optimize the lead PI3K alpha inhibitor 2-hydroxy-1,2-diphenylethanone (benzoin). A series of 2-oxo-1,2-diphenylethyl benzoate analogs were identified as potential PI3K alpha inhibitors. Docking studies confirmed that the aromatic interaction is mediating ligand/protein complex formation and identified Lys802 and Val851 as H-bonding key residues. Our biological data in human colon carcinoma HCT116 showed that the structure analogs inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Oxazoles substituted in their 2-positions with 2-methoxy-, 2-fluoro-, or 2,6-difluorophenyl groups, and in their 4,5-positions with methyls or phenyls, were treated with ArMgBr or ArLi to give substituted biphenyl or terphenyl products. The oxazole groups were subsequently converted to esters, acids, or amides. These reactions provide a new unsymmetrical aryl-aryl coupling synthon.
