Synthesis and SAR studies of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids as potent anti-tumor agents
摘要:
A series of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids and their 14-amino-derivatives (1-44) were prepared and systematically evaluated for their anti-tumor activities against A549 and HL60 cell lines. The bioassay results showed that most of these alkaloids possess good anti-tumor activities. Especially, compounds 15, 22, 28, 33-36, 40 and 42 displayed low nanomolar or subnanomolar levels of anti-tumor activity. The configuration of (13aS,14S)-14-hydroxyphenanthroindolizidines and (14aR,15R)-15-hydroxyphenanthroquinolizidines was confirmed to be optimal. 14-Amino-phenanthroindolizidines with increased polarity possess good anti-tumor activity, especially for compounds 26 and 28. Most of the phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids exhibited higher anti-tumor activity than that of phenanthroindolizidine alkaloids. Our present study provides fundamental support for development and optimization of phenanthroindolizidine and phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids as potential anti-tumor drugs.

Iron(III) Chloride Catalyzed Oxidative Coupling Reaction of 1,2-Diarylethylene Derivatives
A nontoxic FeCl3 catalyzed intramolecular oxidative coupling reaction was developed for mild synthesis of a series of phenanthrenes with different substituents. The method involves cross dehydrogenative coupling of a variety of 1,2‐diarylethylene derivatives with di‐tert‐butylperoxide (DTBP) as a sole oxidant at room temperature in CH2Cl2/TFA (9:1 V/V) to yield phenanthrenes in good to excellent yields
开发了一种无毒的FeCl 3催化的分子内氧化偶联反应,用于轻度合成一系列具有不同取代基的菲。该方法涉及在室温下在CH 2 Cl 2 / TFA(9:1 V / V)中将多种1,2-二芳基乙烯衍生物与二叔丁基过氧化物(DTBP)作为唯一氧化剂进行交叉脱氢偶联以生成菲产量高到极好。
Oxidative intramolecular coupling of 2,3-disubstituted phenyl acrylic acids and derivatives promoted by di-tert-butylperoxide
Polymethoxy-substituted phenanthrene-9-carboxylic acids or their methylate are keyintermediates for the synthesis of tylophora alkaloids and their analogs. An intramolecular oxidative coupling reaction of unfunctionalized 2,3-disubstituted phenyl acrylic acids and derivatives promoted by di-tert-butylperoxide gave above intermediates in high yields. The mild reaction conditions and easy purification
