Synthesis, structure activity relationship and mode of action of 3-substitutedphenyl-1-(2,2,8,8-tetramethyl-3,4,9,10-tetrahydro-2 H ,8 H -pyrano[2,3- f ]chromen-6-yl)-propenones as novel anticancer agents in human leukaemia HL-60 cells
摘要:
A novel class of 3-substitutedphenyl-1-(2,2,8,8-tetramethyl-3,4,9,10-tetrahydro-2H,8H-pyrano[2,3-f]chromen-6-yl)-propenones were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against the human cancer cell lines of diverse origin. Structure activity relationship was elucidated with various substitutions on the benzene ring and these variations significantly affected the potency. Most of the twelve tested compounds inhibited the growth of aggressive cancer cell lines. Moreover, three compounds 4j, 4k and 41 displayed excellent cytotoxic profile by inhibiting >90% cell proliferation in HL-60 and Caco-2 cells at 50 mu M concentration. Further studies to elucidate the mode of action revealed that these three compounds induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, which was accompanied by loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, DNA fragmentation and nuclear morphology in HL-60 cells.

Electron-rich aryl ethers and phenols react with isoprene (2-methylbuta-1,3-diene) in the presence of catalytic Bi(OTf)3 at 40 °C to afford the corresponding prenylated or 2,2-dimethylchroman products, respectively, in moderate to good yields. This transformation offers a convenient and expedient entry to prenylated derivatives of electron-rich aromatics that often display enhanced biological activities

A novel method of nuclear isoprenylation leading to the exclusive formation of 2,2-dimethylchromans has been achieved by the direct condensation of polyhydroxyacetophenones with isoprene in presence of phosphoric acid. Acetylchromans, thus obtained, are dehydrogenated with DDQ to given corresponding 2,2-dimethylchromenes. Using this method, synthesis of number of naturally occurring chromenes, viz
