Synthesis, in vitro and in silico anti-proliferative activity of 4-aryl-4H-chromene derivatives
摘要:
A new series of C4-N,N-dialkylaniline-substituted 4-aryl-4H-chromenes were synthesized, and their anti-proliferative properties were evaluated against human cancer cell lines, namely, laryngeal carcinoma (Hep2), lung adenocarcinoma (A549), and cervical cancer (HeLa). The best among them, the 4-aryl-4H-chromene with C4-1-phenylpiperidine substitution was selected for further structure activity relationship (SAR) studies. Among the derivatives, N,6-dimethyl-3-nitro-4-(4-(piperidine-1-yl)phenyl)-4H-chromene-2-amine 3k showed most potent cytotoxic activity against all three cancer cell lines. Toxicity studies revealed that the 4-aryl-4H-chromenes specifically target the cancer cell lines. Molecular docking studies of this compound revealed its efficient interaction with the active site of alpha beta-tubulin protein.
Nitroketene acetal chemistry: efficient synthesis of 2-amino-3-nitro-4H-chromenes
摘要:
Base-catalyzed reaction of the nitroketene N,S-acetals and the ring substituted 2-hydroxybenzaldehydes afforded a combinatorial library of the 2-alkylamino-3-nitro-4-alkylsulfanyl 4H-chromenes in excellent yields. Nucleophilic displacement of the C4 alkylsulfanyl group with different thiols afforded 4H-chromenes with structural diversity. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A combinatorial library of 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-3-nitro-4H-chromenes was synthesized in high yield by C4-SMe substitution in N-alkyl/phenyl 4-(methylthio)-3-nitro-4H-chromen-2-amines with a variety of phenols. The reaction always provided C2 substitution in the phenol ring, dictated by hydrogen bond interactions between the phenolic hydroxyl group and the nitro group in 3-nitro-4H-chromenes. Reduction of the nitro group with concomitant hydrolysis of the enamine in 4-(2-hydroxyaryl)-3-nitro-4H-chromenes with Zn, Ac(2)O in AcOH furnished hybrid amino-acid lactone incorporating ortho-tyrosine and phenyl alanine moieties.

Synthesis, in vitro and in silico antimalarial activity of 7-chloroquinoline and 4H-chromene conjugates
A new series of chloroquinoline-4H-chromene conjugates incorporating piperizine or azipane tethers were synthesized and their anti-malarial activity were evaluated against two Plasmodium falciparum strains namely 3D7 chloroquine sensitive (CQS) and K1 chloroquine resistant (CQR). Chloroquine was used as the standard and also reference for comparison. The conjugates exhibit intense UV absorption with lambda(max) located at 342 nm (log epsilon = 4.0), 254 nm (log epsilon = 4.2), 223 nm (log epsilon = 4.4) which can be used to spectrometrically track the molecules even in trace amounts. Among all the synthetic compounds, two molecules namely 6-nitro and N-piperazine groups incorporated 7d and 6-chloro and N-azapane incorporated 15b chloroquinoline-4H-chromene conjugates showed significant anti-malarial activity against two strains (3D7 and K1) of P. falciparum. These values are lesser than the values of standard antimalarial compound. Molecular docking results suggested that these two compounds showing strong binding affinity with P. falciparum lactate dehydrogenase (PfLDH) and also they occupy the co-factor position which indicated that they could be the potent inhibitors for dreadful disease malaria and specifically attack the glycolytic pathway in parasite for energy production.
