Sesquiterpene Lactones with Potential Use as Natural Herbicide Models. 2. Guaianolides
摘要:
A structure-activity study to evaluate the effect of 17 guaianolide sesquiterpene lactones (in a range of 100-0.001 muM) on the growth and germination of several mono- and dicotyledon target species is accomplished. Results are compared with those obtained in the same bioassay with an internal standard, the commercial herbicide Logran, to validate the results with a known active formulation and to compare the results with a commercial product to test their potential use as natural herbicide models. Specific conditions for the selective mono- or polyhydroxylation of guaianolides using the SeO2/tert-butyl hydroperoxide system are presented and discussed. The high regio- and stereoselectivities of the reaction are explained through the specific structural requirements of the bulky first adduct formed during the ene reaction. These compounds appear to have deeper effects on the growth of either monocots or dicots than the previously tested germacranolides. Otherwise, the lactone group seems to be necessary for the activity, though it does not necessarily need to be unsaturated. However, the presence of a second and easily accessible unsaturated carbonyl system greatly enhances the inhibitory activity. Lipophilicity and the stereochemistry of the possible anchoring sites are also crucial factors for the activity. Finally, the levels of growth inhibition obtained with some compounds on dicots or monocots are totally comparable to those of Logran and allow proposing them as lead compounds.

and synthetic sesquiterpene lactones with eudesmanolide, melampolide, cis,cis -germacranolide, and guaianolide skeletons have been prepared and tested as allelochemicals. The effect of a series of aqueous solutions at 10 −4 -10 −9 M ofthis collection is evaluated. The specific structural requirements related to their activity is discussed.

phytotoxicities of a selection of eudesmanolides and guaianolides, including natural products and new derivatives obtained by semisynthesis from plant-isolated sesquiterpene lactones, were evaluated in bioassays against three weeds of concern in agriculture (Amaranthus viridis L., Echinochloa crus-galli L., and Lolium perenne L.). Both eudesmanolides and guaianolides were active against the root and
Several novel series of sesquiterpene mustards (SMs) bearing nitrogen mustard and glutathione (GSH)-reactive alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactone groups were successfully prepared for the first time and showed excellent antiproliferative activities in vitro. Among them, compounds 2e and 2g displayed the highest antiproliferative properties with IC50 values ranging from 2.5 to 8.7 mu M. The selectivity of these two compounds was evaluated by SRB method against human cancer and normal hepatic cells (HepG2 and L02). The induction of apoptosis and effects on the cell cycle distribution with compounds 2e and 2g were investigated by Hoechst 33,258 staining and flow cytometry, which exhibited that they could induce selective cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in HepG2 and L02 cells. In addition, further investigation showed that compounds 2e and 2g could obviously inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells by inducing significant DNA cross-linking and depleting GSH in cell media. The good cytotoxicity and selectivity of compounds 2e and 2g pointed them as promising leads for anticancer drug design. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
