The synthesis of azanaphthoquinone annelated pyrrole derivatives is described. The [c]-annelated derivative was synthesized by reaction of an azanaphthoquinone monoketal with tosylmethyl isocyanide. The synthesis of each of the two isomeric [b]-annelated pyrrole derivatives was realized by selective acylation reactions with pyrrole. Furthermore detailed NMR spectroscopic studies (H-1,C-13) are published.

AbstractThe design and synthesis of monosubstituted and disubstituted azanaphthoquinone annelated pyrroles with anticancer activity are described. N-alkylation with various side chains at the pyrrole ring led to a series of monosubstituted products. For preparation of disubstituted isoindole derivatives, appropriately substituted tosyl methyl isocyanides were used. The biological activity of all the
Two series of azanaphthoquinone annelated pyrrolo oximes have been synthesized. The antiproliferative activities of 10 compounds were evaluated on at least four different cell lines. One series of pyrrolo derivatives showed high cytotoxic activity. The effects on cell cycle and caspase activity were investigated. Compounds 9a and 9b showed an accumulation of cells in G2/M phase. Substantial and dose-dependent caspase activity was found after treatment of cells with 9a and 9b. This indicates an apoptosis inducing property of these compounds.
