Synthesis and Biological Properties of Benzothiazole, Benzoxazole, and Chromen-4-one Analogues of the Potent Antitumor Agent 2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)-…

2008

New fluorinated 2-aryl-benzothiazoles, -benzoxazoles, and -chromen-4-ones have been synthesized and their activity against MCF-7 and MDA 468 breast cancer cell lines compared with the potent antitumor benzothiazole 5. Analogues such as 9a, b and 12a, d yielded submicromolar GI50 values in both cell lines; however, none of the new compounds approached 5 in terms of antitumor potency. For 5, binding to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor appeared to be necessary but not sufficient for growth inhibition.

Identification of Novel Anthracycline Resistance Genes and Their Inhibitors

2021

Differentially expressed genes have been previously identified by us in multidrug-resistant tumor cells mainly resistant to doxorubicin. In the present study, we exemplarily focused on some of these genes to investigate their causative relationship with drug resistance. HMOX1, NEIL2, and PRKCA were overexpressed by lentiviral-plasmid-based transfection of HEK293 cells. An in silico drug repurposing approach was applied using virtual screening and molecular docking of FDA-approved drugs to identify inhibitors of these new drug-resistant genes. Overexpression of the selected genes conferred resistance to doxorubicin and daunorubicin but not to vincristine, docetaxel, and cisplatin, indicating…

Rhodium(III)-catalyzed ring-opening of strained olefins through C–H activation of O-acetyl ketoximes: an efficient synthesis of trans-functionalized …

2013

An efficient strategy for the stereoselective synthesis of functionalized cyclopentenes and spiro[2.4]heptenes from strained olefins via C–H activation of aryl ketone O-acetyl ketoximes using [RhCl2Cp∗]2 catalyst is described. The results revealed that a wide range of readily accessible aryl and heteroaryl ketoximes are compatible in this method for the ring opening of bicyclic and spirotricyclic olefins.

New Reactions of Amino-Functionalized 3-Vinyl-1H-indoles and Tetrahydropyridin-4-yl Analogues with Dienophiles

1991

Reactions of 3-[2-(morpholin-4-yl)vinyl]-1H-indole (1), the 1,2-dihydro-9H-carbazole 2, as well as the 3-(tetrahydropyridin-4-yl)-1H-indoles 3a and 3b with some carbo- and heterodienophiles are described. The scope and limitations of the synthetic utility of these amino- (or homoamino)-functionalized 3-vinyl-1H-indoles are reported and some MO calculations for the qualitative prediction of their reactivities are presented. The reactions gave rise to substitution products, redox products, Diels-Alder adducts, ene adducts, and Michael-type adducts (Schemes 2 and 3).

Reactions of 3-(tetrahydropyrid-4-yl)-indoles with dienophiles: new heterocyclic functionalized indoles and pyrido[]annellated carbazoles

1991

First reactions of 3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrid-4-yl)-indoles 1 with a variety of carbo- and heterodienophiles are described. These reactions provide a new access to heterocyclic functionalized indoles and pyrido[c]annellated carbazoles, compounds of interest as potential antidepressive and antitumor active agents.

Arynic species; effect of substituents on the reactivity of monosubstituted dehydrobenzenes

1986

Abstract Evidence is presented demonstrating the existence of free dehydrobenzenes in the thermal decomposition of diaryliodonium-2-carboxylates, and that o-benzyne itself and its 4-methyl-, 4-chloro-,4-bromo- and 4-nitro-derivatives are generated from insoluble polymer-bound precursors and trapped by a second solid phase in Diels-Alder reactions. Lifetimes for these elusive species are determined.

Cycloaddition reactions of 3-vinylthiophen

1987

Abstract Cycloaddition reactions between 3-vinylthiophen and the dienophiles maleic anhydride, methyl acrylate, dimethyl acetylene - dicarboxylate, and methyl propiolate give products including methyl benzo[b]thiophen-7-carboxylate (11) and its dihydroderivative (10), the 6,7-dicarboxylic acid (3), its dimethyl ester (7) and dihydroester (6); the naphtho[a,b]dithiophen (14), and the novel ethano bridged benzo[b]thiophen (15).

New cycloaddition reactions of 1-phenyl-4-vinylpyrazole

1986

Abstract 1-Phenyl-4-vinylpyrazole reacts with methyl propiolate and N-phenylmaleimide giving via the Diels-Alder 1:1 adducts, products (4) and (8), and also the 1:2 adducts (5), (6) and (9) resulting from an “ene” reaction of the initially forced cycloadducts. The obtention of the adducts (5) and (6) in equimolecular amounts is a good example of the non-regioselective character of the “ene” reaction. The reaction with tetracyanoethylene takes place through the olefinic substituent giving the π2 + π2 adduct (10).
