Spectroscopic and PM5 semiempirical study of a new lasalocid ester with 2-allyloxyethanol and its complexes with monovalent cations
摘要:
A new ester of lasalocid with 2-allyloxyethanol (Las9) has been synthesised and its ability to form complexes with Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+ and Cs+ cations has been studied by ESI mass spectrometry as well as H-1, C-13 NMR and Fr-IR spectroscopic methods. The ESI-MS spectra indicate that Las9 forms stable 1: 1 complexes with all cations studied. The Fr-IR spectra of Las9 in acetonitrile solution have evidenced the existence of an equilibrium between keto and enol forms, with the predominance of the keto form. No effect of the kind of cations on this keto-enol equilibrium has been found. The results of the PM5 semiempirical calculations show that the keto form of Las9 is more favourable than the enol form. In the Las9 molecule two parts can be distinguished, stabilised by hydrogen bonds. In the structure of the complexes these two parts are no longer observed. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Seven Mannich base derivatives of polyether antibiotic Lasalocid acid (2a–2g) were synthesized and screened for their antiproliferative activity against various human cancer cell lines. A novel chemoselective one-pot synthesis of these Mannich bases was developed. Compounds 2a–2c and 2g with sterically smaller dialkylamine substituent, displayed potent antiproliferative activity (IC50: 3.2–7.3 μM)
