Quinoline-Carboxylic acids are potent inhibitors that inhibit the binding of insulin-Like growth factor (IGF) to IGF-Binding proteins
摘要:
4-Benzylquinolines 5, based on a series of isoquinolines 1, were prepared and tested as inhibitors of the IGF/IGFBP-3 complex based on their ability to displace IGF-I from its binding to IGF-binding protein-3. SAR studies on the 6,7-dihydroxy moiety of the quinoline 5a showed that the catecol moiety could be replaced with other functional groups. Computational modeling of the 5a/mini-IGFBP-5 complex revealed the possible binding site of 5a on IGFBP-5. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
A Mild and Efficient Synthesis of 4-Quinolones and Quinolone Heterocycles
摘要:
The cycloacylation of aniline derivatives to 4-quinolones in the presence of Eaton's reagent is described. This high-yielding methodology is applicable to a wide variety of functionalized anilines and requires milder conditions than those traditionally employed. This cyclization protocol is used to prepare a host of heterocycles and bis-quinolones and is characterized by relatively low reaction temperature and ease of product isolation.
