Synthesis and antitumor evaluation of methyl spongoate analogs
摘要:
A series of novel methyl spongoate (1) analogs has been synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic properties. It was found that the nature of the C-20 side chain had significant effects on their bioactivities and some analogs showed higher cytotoxicity than 1 against A549, HCT-116, HepG2, SW-1990, MCF-7 and NCl-H460 tumor cell lines. The pharmacological results confirmed that the alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl moiety, a Michael acceptor in ring A, plays a pivotal role in the cytotoxic effect of these derivatives. The compiled pharmacological data may be useful for the design of novel analogous anticancer drugs. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
