Reduction of a series of substituted flavanones afforded synthetic access to flavan-4-ols and was followed for some of them by an SN2-type acid-catalysis in methanol to provide 4-methoxyflavans. The stereochemistry of these compounds was established by 1H and 13C NMR data. Flavan-4-ols and 4-methoxyflavans have been resolved into enantiomers which are being evaluated as anticancer drugs.
一系列得到合成获得黄烷-4-醇和取代的黄烷酮的还原,随后进行由S它们中的一些Ñ在甲醇2类型的酸催化,以提供4- methoxyflavans。这些化合物的立体化学由1 H和13 C NMR数据确定。黄烷-4-醇和4-甲氧基黄烷已被解析为对映体,其被评估为抗癌药。
Flavonoids: structural requirements for antiproliferative activity on breast cancer cells
Several classes of flavonoids (flavones, flavanones, 2'-hydroxychalcones and flavan-4-ols) having a variety of substituents on A ring were investigated for their antiproliferativeactivity against MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Structure-activity relationships of these compounds were discussed. 2'-hydroxychalcones and methoxylated flavanones were found to be potent inhibitors of MCF-7 cells growth

Aromatase is a target of pharmacological interest for the treatment of estrogen-dependent cancers. Azole derivatives such as letrozole or anastrozole have been developed for aromatase inhibition and are used for the treatment of breast tumors. In this paper, four 4-triazolylflavans were synthesized and were found to exhibit moderate to high inhibitory activity against aromatase. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Two 4-imidazolylflavans were synthesized and their relative stereochemistry was established by H-1 and C-13 NMR data. These compounds were tested for their activity to inhibit aromatase. It was observed that the introduction of an imidazolyl group at carbon 4 on flavan nucleus led to potent molecules. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
