Novel and efficient synthesis of 5,8-dimethyl-9H-carbazol-3-ol via a hydroxydeboronation reaction
摘要:
N-Protected carbazol-3-yl-boronic acid derivatives have been efficiently hydroxydeboronated under mild conditions by employing hydrogen peroxide. The method allows to easily obtain 3-hydroxycarbazoles as precursors of new analogs of the anticancer agent 9-hydroxyellipticine.
Several 9H-carbazole derivatives are used for various pharmacological applications. Many of these compounds demonstrated cytotoxic and anticancer activities. In this work, we have investigated the cytotoxic activity of some substituted carbazoles against cancer cell lines (MCF-7, and ISK). The derivative 2a showed the highest inhibitory activity against both cell lines.
