Antitumor Benzothiazoles. 3. Synthesis of 2-(4-Aminophenyl)benzothiazoles and Evaluation of Their Activities against Breast Cancer Cell Lines in Vitro and in Vivo
摘要:
A new series of 2-(4-aminophenyl)benzothiazoles substituted in the phenyl ring and benzothiazole moiety has been synthesized by simple, high-yielding routes. The parent molecule 5a shows potent inhibitory activity in vitro in the nanomolar range against a panel of human breast cancer cell lines, but is inactive (IC50 > 30 mu M) against other cell types: activity against the sensitive breast lines MCF-7 and MDA 468 is characterized by a biphasic dose-response relationship. Structure-activity relationships derived using these cell types has revealed that activity follows the heterocyclic sequence benzothiazole > benzoxazole much greater than benzimidazole and that 2-(4-aminophenyl)benzothiazoles bearing a 3'-methyl- 9a, 3'-bromo- 9c, 3'- iodo- 9f, and 3'-chloro-substituent 9i are especially potent and their activity extends to ovarian, lung, and renal cell lines. Four compounds have been evaluated in vivo against human mammary carcinoma models in nude mice. Compound 9a showed the most potent growth inhibition against the ER(+) (MCF-7 and BO) and ER(-) (MT-1 and MT-3) tumors. Our efforts to identify a pharmacological mechanism of action for these intriguing compounds have not, as yet, been successful.
Synthesis, electrophysiological properties and analysis of structural requirements of a novel class of antiarrhythmic agents with potassium and calcium channel blocking properties
Class III antiarrhythmic agents have been shown to prevent reentrant arrhythmias but also to be responsible for initiating arrhythmias characterised by afterdepolarizations and triggered activities. By combining potassium and calcium channel antagonistic actions, as with BRL-32872(1,2) (1), it might be possible to reduce the incidence of proarrhythmias albeit retaining antiarrhythmic efficacy. In the present study we synthesised and tested for their electrophysiological activity in guinea pig papillary muscle a wide panel of analogues of BRL-32872. Some qualitative relationships between compound structure and the inhibitory effect on the rapidly activating component of the delayed rectifier potassium current and/or the L-type calcium current will be presented. New derivatives depicting bell-shaped dose-response curves on action potential duration may therefore represent novel agents for improved antiarrhythmic therapy. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Selective oxidative homo- and cross-coupling of electron-rich phenols and anilides was developed using nitrosonium tetrafluoroborate as a catalyst. Oxidative coupling of phenols revealed unusual selectivities, which translated into the unprecedented synthesis of inverse Pummerer-type ketones. Mechanistic studies suggest that oxidative coupling of phenols and anilides shares a common pathway via homolytical
