Total synthesis of moniliformediquinone and calanquinone A as potent inhibitors for breast cancer
摘要:
The first synthesis of moniliformediquinone has been achieved in which the longest linear sequence is only nine steps. The synthesis proceeds in 23% overall yield from commercially available 2,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde. The key transformations include a Pd-catalyzed coupling between a phenyl triflate and an acetylene, and a TiCl4-mediated cyclization of a benzoquinone intermediate. In addition, in vitro inhibitory effects of moniliformediquinone, denbinobin, moscatilin, and calanquinone A were determined to have IC50 values of 0.7, 1.6, 2.5, and 1.5 mu M, respectively.

A totalsynthesis of denbinobin (1) in seven steps with an overall yield of 10% is reported. This synthesis used an FeCl3-assisted cyclization of stilbene to form a phenanthrene. The poor yields of the decarboxylation and methoxylation steps were improved upon to become essentially quantitative. This scalable methodology was carried out using ordinary laboratory reagents.

Two phenanthrenes were isolated from the aerial part of Dendrobium nobile Lindl. and their structures were identified to be 4,7-dihydroxy-2-methoxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene (1) and denbinobin (2), among which the former has been first isolated from this plant. These two compounds were found to be cytotoxic against A549 (human lung carcinoma), SK-OV-3 (human ovary adenocarcinoma), and HL-60 (human promyelocytic leukemia) cell lines. Compound 1 also showed antitumor activity on the life span of ICR mice intraperitoneally implanted with 1 × 106 cells of sarcoma 180.

A composition containing non-psychotropic cannabinoids for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
The invention relates to a composition comprising at least one non-psycotropic cannabinoid and/or at least one phenolic or flavonoid compound and/or Denbinobin and their uses for the prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases and for the prevention and treatment of gastrointestinal cancers. It also relates to a phytoextract obtained from the plant Cannabis sativa, more particularly from the selected variety CARMA.
