Vinylogous carbinolamine tumor inhibitors. 19. Synthesis and antineoplastic activity of bis[[[(alkylamino)carbonyl]oxy]methyl]-substituted 3-pyrrolines as prodrugs of tumor inhibitory pyrrolebis(carbamates)
摘要:
A series of bis[(carbamoyloxy)methyl]pyrrolines 2-4 were synthesized from either the appropriate alpha-silylated iminium salt, or an aziridine, or a 2H-azirine in a sequence involving 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. The antineoplastic activities of the pyrrolines were compared to the corresponding pyrroles. The C-2 gem-dimethyl-substituted pyrroline, 4, which cannot be converted to the pyrrole in vivo, was inactive. The activity of the 2-phenyl-substituted pyrrolines 3 was markedly dependent on the nature of the phenyl substituent, although the corresponding phenylpyrroles all showed comparable activity. The differences in the activities of the pyrrolines 3 may be due to the rate of metabolic conversion of the pyrroline to the pyrrole. Electron-withdrawing substituents on the phenyl ring appear to retard this process.
Generation and cycloaddition of less- or non-stabilized azomethine ylides, or nitrileylideequivalents, via unprecedented 1,4-stannatropy of N-(tributylstannylmethyl)thioamides were achieved. The reactions with dipolarophiles, such as electron-deficient alkenes and alkynes, afforded corresponding pyrrolidine and pyrrole derivatives effectively.

The cesium fluoride induced desilylation reaction of immonium salts derived from amides, thioamides and vinylogous amides provides access to reactive azomethine ylides in synthetically useful yields.
