A useful and efficient synthetic strategy to 2,3,6,8-tetrasubstituted chromone derivatives has been developed. 2-Aryl/styryl-8-bromo-6-chloro-3-hydroxychromone derivatives were synthesized and used as scaffolds by introducing a variety of substituents in the 3-, 6-, and 8-positions using palladium-mediated reactions. Excellent regioselectivity in all positions could be obtained by performing reactions in the 8-position first, in which Stille, Heck, Suzuki, and Sonogashira reactions gave good to excellent yields of product (63-98%). Stille and Heck reactions in the 6- position also gave the desired products in good yields (64-86%). The hydroxy group in the 3- position was activated as a triflate and used in productive Stille reactions (63-94%). This hydroxyl group was also used in O-alkylation reactions with different functionalized alkyl bromides (57-88%). The flavonoids, which are based on the chromone structure, and other related ring systems, have several interesting biological activities. The chromones are also interesting structural scaffolds, and they have for example been designed to be used as mimetics of short peptides. The versatile applicability of chromone derivatives and especially their potential use in drug discovery implicates the importance of access to efficient synthetic routes to such compounds.

A series of substituted chromone/chroman-4-one derivatives has been synthesized and evaluated as novel inhibitors of SIRT2, an enzyme involved in aging-related diseases, e.g., neurodegenerative disorders. The analogues were efficiently synthesized in a one-step procedure including a base-mediated aldol condensation using microwave irradiation. The most potent compounds, with inhibitory concentrations in the low micromolar range, were substituted in the 2-, 6-, and 8-positions. Larger, electron-withdrawing substituents in the 6- and 8-positions were favorable. The most potent inhibitor of SIRT2 was 6,8-dibromo-2-pentylchroman-4-one with an IC50 of 1.5 mu M. The synthesized compounds show high selectivity toward SIRT2 over SIRT1 and SIRT3 and represent an important starting point for the development of novel SIRT2 inhibitors.
