Design and synthesis of N-methylmaleimide indolocarbazole bearing modified 2-acetamino acid moieties as Topoisomerase I inhibitors
摘要:
A novel series of N-methylmaleimide indolocarbazole derivatives bearing modified 2-acetamino acid moieties are first reported. The cytotoxic effects of these compounds were tested in five human tumor cell lines. The potent compounds 9a, 9b, 9d, and 9e have been further evaluated for their effect on Topoisomerase I ( TOPO I) and cancer cell cycle. It is concluded that the indolocarbazoles with alkyl piperazine or morpholine substituent groups instead of esters or glycosyl residues would have better activities against tumors.

A simple and efficient one-pot, three-component method has been developed for the synthesis of α-aminonitriles. This Streckerreaction is applicable for aldehydes and ketones with aliphatic or aromatic amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide in the presence of a palladium Lewis acid catalyst in dichloromethane solvent at room temperature.
