Antitumor agents 287. Substituted 4-amino-2H-pyran-2-one (APO) analogs reveal a new scaffold from neo-tanshinlactone with in vitro anticancer activity
摘要:
4-Amino-2H-benzo[h] chromen-2-one (ABO) and 4-amino-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[h] chromen-2-one (ATBO) analogs were found to be significant in vitro anticancer agents in our previous research. Our continuing study has now discovered a new simplified (monocyclic rather than tricyclic) class of cytotoxic agents, 4-amino-2H-pyran-2-one (APO) analogs. By incorporating various substituents on the pyranone ring, we have established preliminary structure-activity relationships (SAR). Analogs 19, 20, 23, and 26-30 displayed significant tumor cell growth inhibitory activity in vitro. The most active compound 27 exhibited ED50 values of 0.059-0.090 mu M. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Vinylogous Mukaiyama-aldol reaction was realized by use of dioxinone-derived silyl dienolethers and various aldehydes in the presence of highly catalytic amounts of bismuth triflate. The reaction proceeds rapidly and affords the corresponding β-hydroxy-1,3-dioxin-4-ones in very good to excellent yields (up to 98%).

Three asymmetric pathways to the kavalactones have been developed. The first method is chiral auxiliary-based and utilizes aldol reactions of N-acetyl thiazolidinethiones followed by a malonate displacement/decarboxylation reaction. The second approach uses the asymmetric catalytic Mukaiyama additions of dienolate nucleophile equivalents developed by Carreira and Sato. Finally, tin-substituted intermediates, prepared by either of these routes, can serve as advanced general precursors of kavalactone derivatives via Pd(0)-catalyzed Stille couplings with aryl halides.
