The invention discloses 4-substituted androstendione derivatives of the following formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R is amino or substituted amino or azido, one of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is hydrogen and the other is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl, and (x) and (y) are each, independently, a single bond or a double bond. The compounds of formula (I) are useful aromatase inhibitors.

The mixed acid (H 2 SO 4 -HOAc) catalyzed ring opening of α,β-epoxyketone was the most used method for the preparation of diosphenols, but it seriously suffered from poor yields and -tedious workup operations. By using silica gel supported mixed acid (H 2 SO 4 -HOAc), a variety of α,β-epoxyketones were converted into the corresponding diosphenols in unprecedented high yields within a few minutes.
混酸(H 2 SO 4 -HOAc)催化α,β-环氧酮开环是制备二酚类化合物最常用的方法,但其收率低,后处理操作繁琐。通过使用硅胶负载的混合酸(H 2 SO 4 -HOAc),各种α,β-环氧酮在几分钟内以前所未有的高产率转化为相应的二酚。

A series of new 4-(alkylthio)-substituted androstenedione analogues was designed as potential suicide inhibitors of aromatase on the basis of mechanistic considerations on the mode of action of the enzyme. Their synthesis and biological evaluation are described. Among the most interesting are the 4-[(difluoromethyl)thio]-, 4-[(fluoromethyl) thio]-, and 4-[(chloromethyl)thio]androstenediones 12,13, and 14 with respective IC50's of 2.7,0.8, and 0.94-mu-M. Compound 12 was a reversible inhibitor of aromatase while compounds 13 and 14 displayed time-dependent kinetics of inhibition with respective K(I)'s and half-times of inactivation of 30 nM and 3.75 min for 13 and 30 nM and 3 min for 14. The inhibition of aromatase by 14 was NADPH-dependent, and was protected by the presence of substrate (0.5-1-mu-M), while beta-mercaptoethanol (0.5 mM) failed to protect the enzyme from inactivation. Dialysis failed to reactivate aromatase previously inactivated by 14. The mechanistic implications of these findings are

Alkyl-substituted olefins are epoxidized by perfluoro-cis-2,3-dialkyloxaziridines under particularly mild conditions. Electron deficient substrates (e.g, alpha,beta-enones) can also be epoxidized, and the more electron poor the double bond is, the more severe the reactions conditions become. The epoxidation is chemoselective (secondary alcohols and their ethers do not interfere), site selective (the monoepoxide of a diene can be obtained), and stereoselective (cis-alkenes afford cis-epoxides). Various complex and polyfunctional substrates of natural origin (monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, steroids) have been transformed effectively.

The synthesis and biological evaluation of androstenedione derivatives as inhibitors of estrogen biosynthesis are described. The results show that 4-hydroxy analogues are among the most potent in vitro inhibitors of the series. Esterification of the 4-hydroxy steroids generally reduced activity. Further conjugation of the 3-keto 4-ene system to give 4-hydroxy-4,6-androstadiene-3,17-dione caused more rapid inactivation of aromatase in rat ovarian microsomes than 4-hydroxyandrostenedione. Some compounds exhibited differences in activity when tested for inhibition of human placental microsomes vs. rat ovarian microsomes. The 4-hydroxyandrostenedione derivatives and their nonbulky esters were generally more potent in vitro and in vivo inhibitors than other substituted steroids in the series. Several of the synthesized compounds markedly reduce (50-81%) estrogen levels in rats on proestrus and/or had antifertility action. To date, none of the compounds surpassed the in vivo inhibitory action of 4-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione or its 4-acetate derivative.
