ABSTRACT

Four pseudo-symmetrical tamoxifen derivatives, RID-B (13), RID-C (14), RID-D (15), and bis(dimethylaminophenetole) (16), were synthesized via the novel three-component coupling reaction, and the structure-activity relationships of these pseudo-symmetrical tamoxifen derivatives were examined. It was discovered that 13 and 16 strongly inhibit the viability of the HL-60 human acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line, whereas 14 possesses a medium activity against the same cell line and 15 has no effect on the cell viability. The global anti-tumor activity of 13-16 against a variety of human cancer cells was assessed using a panel of 39 human cancer cell lines (JFCR 39), and it was shown that RID-B (13) strongly inhibited the growth of several cancer cell lines at concentrations of less than 1 microM (at 0.38 microM for SF-539 [central nervous system], at 0.58 microM for HT-29 [colon], at 0.20 microM for DMS114 [lung], at 0.21 microM for LOX-IMVI [melanoma], and at 0.23 microM for MKN74 [stomach]).

ABSTRACT

We have developed effective methods for the total synthesis of 2-hydroxytetracosanolide and 2-hydroxy-24-oxooctacosanolide, the defensive salivary secretions of termites. The former natural product isolated from Armitermes neotenicus, a species of termite that inhabits Guyana, contains a 25-membered lactone backbone, and the latter, extracted from Pseudacanthoterme springer, an African termite, includes a 29-membered lactone moiety. The key cyclization to produce the 25- or 29-membered lactone core is performed by using 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic anhydride (MNBA) with a stoichiometric amount of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) or a catalytic amount of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine N-oxide (DMAPO).

ABSTRACT

Three new pseudo-symmetrical tamoxifen derivatives, RID-B (15), C (16), and D (17), were synthesized via the novel three-component coupling reaction, and the structure-activity relationships of the pseudo-symmetrical tamoxifen derivatives were examined. It was discovered that 15 strongly inhibits the viability of HL-60 human acute promyelocytic leukemia, whereas 16 possesses medium activity against the cell line and 17 has no effect on the cell viability. The agarose gel electrophoresis for DNA cleavage showed the cell death might be induced by apoptosis.

ABSTRACT

[structure: see text] An effective method for the total synthesis of 2-hydroxy-24-oxooctacosanolide, a defensive salivary secretion of the African termite Pseudacanthotermes spiniger, has been developed. The key lactonization to form a 29-membered ring lactone core is performed using 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic anhydride with a catalytic amount of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine N-oxide.
