Allobetulin derived seco-oleananedicarboxylates act as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase
摘要:
Ring opening of allobetulone gave either seco-acid 8 or di-acid 4. These acids were converted into esters that were screened by Ellman's assay. A dibutenylester of low cytotoxicity (NIH 3T3 murine embryonic fibroblasts) was shown to be a good mixed-type inhibitor (K-i = 3.39, K-i' = 2.26 mu M) for acetylcholinesterase. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

A variety of allobetulin derivatives was synthesized from allobetulin or allobetulone. These compounds were screened for their cytotoxic activity using a photometric SRB assay employing six different human tumor cell lines. In summary, opening of ring A of allobetulin in general lowers the cytotoxicity, but the 2,3-seco diethyl ester was highly cytotoxic and remarkable selective for A549 lung carcinoma cells while being significantly less cytotoxic for non-malignant mouse fibroblasts. The introduction of an amino group at position C-3 in the allobetulin skeleton enhances cytotoxicity and furnishes highly cytotoxic compounds. Their selectivity to distinguish between cancer cell and non-malignant cell depends on the configuration at position C-3. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
