Synthesis and anticancer activity of polyhydroxylated 18-membered analogue of antimycin A3
摘要:
A novel polyhydroxylated 18-membered analogue of antimycin A(3) was synthesized. Our synthesis commenced with Boc-L-threonine and was achieved by way of one-pot homocoupling/ring-closing olefin metathesis reaction cascade and Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation. The analogue exhibited a greater anticancer activity against HeLa cells, breast MDA-MB-231 cells, and prostate PC-3 cells compared to the original antimycin A(3). (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
