- Synthesis and antitumor activity of novel pyridinium fullerene derivatives
-
Purpose: We have previously reported that some cationic fullerene derivatives exhibited anticancer activity, and they are expected to be a potential lead compound for an anti-drug resistant cancer agent. However, they are bis-adducts and a mixture of multiple regioisomers, which cannot be readily separated due to the variability of substituent positions on the fullerene cage. To overcome this issue, we evaluated the antiproliferative activities of a set of mono-adduct derivatives and examined their structure-activity relationship. In addition, the in vivo antitumor activity of selected derivatives was also examined. Methods: Nineteen pyridinium fullerene derivatives were newly designed and synthesized in this study. Their antiproliferative activities were evaluated using several cancer cell lines including drug-resistant cells. Furthermore, in vivo antitumor activity of several derivatives was investigated in mouse xenograft model of human lung cancer. Results: The derivatives inhibited the proliferation of cancer cell lines, including cisplatin-resistant cells and doxorubicin-resistant cells. It was also shown that compound 10 (10 μM), 13 (10 μM) and cis-14 (10 μM) induced the intracellular oxidative stress. In addition, compound 13 (20 mg/kg) and cis-14 (15 mg/kg) significantly exhibited antitumor activity in mouse xenograft model of human lung cancer. Conclusion: We synthesized a novel set of mono-adduct fullerene derivatives functionalized with pyridinium groups and found that most of them show potent antiproliferative activities against cancer cell lines and some of them show significant antitumor activities in vivo. We propose that these fullerene derivatives serve as the lead compounds for a novel type of antitumor agents.

- Studies directed towards the total synthesis of (±)-himbacine
-
The synthesis of aldehyde 11a is reported based upon the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of triene 10, the butenolide-diene part of which was obtained in one step via the condensation of the enolate derived from the (Z)-enoate ester 5 with 2-acetoxypropanal. Aldehyde 11a possesses the correct stereochemistry of the tricyclic part of himbacine, an important muscarine receptor antagonist.

- Weinreb Amide, Ketone and Amine as Potential and Competitive Secondary Molecular Stations for Dibenzo-[24]Crown-8 in [2]Rotaxane Molecular Shuttles
-
This paper reports the synthesis and study of new pH-sensitive DB24C8-based [2]rotaxane molecular shuttles that contain within their axle four potential sites of interaction for the DB24C8: ammonium, amine, Weinreb amide, and ketone. In the protonated state, the DB24C8 lay around the best ammonium site. After either deprotonation or deprotonation-then-carbamoylation of the ammonium, different localizations of the DB24C8 were seen, depending on both the number and nature of the secondary stations and steric restriction. Unexpectedly, the results indicated that the Weinreb amide was not a proper secondary molecular station for the DB24C8. Nevertheless, through its methoxy side chain, it slowed down the shuttling of the macrocycle along the threaded axle, thereby partitioning the [2]rotaxane into two translational isomers on the NMR timescale. The ketone was successfully used as a secondary molecular station, and its weak affinity for the DB24C8 was similar to that of a secondary amine.

- Synthesis of Macrocyclic Lactones via Ring Transformation of 4-(ω-Hydroxyalkyl)-1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-ones
-
The synthesis of α-benzamido-α-benzyl lactones 23 of various ring size was achieved either via ‘direct amide cyclization’ by treatment of 2-benzamido-2-benzyl-ω-hydroxy-N,N-dimethylalkanamides 21 in toluene at 90 – 110° with HCl gas or by ‘ring transformation’ of 4-benzyl-4-(ω-hydroxyalkyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-ones under the same conditions. The precursors were obtained by C-alkylations of 4-benzyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-one (15) with THP- or TBDMS-protected ω-hydroxyalkyl iodides. Ring opening of the THP-protected oxazolones by treatment with Me2NH followed by deprotection of the OH group gave the diamides 21, whereas deprotection of the TBDMS series of oxazolones 25 with TBAF followed by treatment with HCl gas led to the corresponding lactones 23 in a one-pot reaction.

- Copper-catalyzed hydroalkylation of terminal alkynes
-
We have developed a copper-catalyzed hydroalkylation of terminal alkynes using alkyl triflates as coupling partners and (Me2HSi)2O as a hydride donor. The hydroalkylation proceeds with excellent anti-Markovnikov regioselectivity and provides exclusively (E)-alkenes. We have demonstrated that both alkyl- and aryl-substituted alkynes can be used as substrates, together with 1° alkyl and benzylic triflates. Finally, the transformation can be accomplished in the presence of a wide range of functional groups. Overall, the new hydroalkylation reaction allows highly efficient and diastereospecific synthesis of (E)-alkenes from readily available terminal alkynes and alkyl triflates. On the basis of a preliminary mechanistic study, we propose that the hydroalkylation reaction involves copper hydride formation, hydrocupration of an alkyne, and alkylation of an alkenyl copper intermediate.

-
Macrolide (R)-de-O-methyllasiodiplodin (1), discovered to be a potent nonsteroidal antagonist of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), was synthesized via an efficient method and evaluated for MR antagonistic activity together with its analogs. Among all the tested compounds, compounds 18a, 18b and 18c, exhibited more potent antagonistic activity against MR with IC50 values ranging from 0.58 to 1.11 μM. Generally, it was obviously demonstrated that acetylation at phenolic hydroxyl groups and the ring size in analogs of 1 were very important for MR antagonist activity.

- Synthesis of the C5-C30 fragment of cyclodidemniserinol trisulfate via I2-mediated deprotection and ring closure tandem reaction
-
The marine natural product cyclodidemniserinol trisulfate displayed moderate HIV-1 integrase inhibitory activity. Its novel structure triggered our interest to synthesize it. In our total synthesis effort, the natural product was dissected into four fragments based on the rational retrosynthetic analysis. All four fragments were successfully prepared with orthogonal protection. And the assembly of fragment A and B furnished the C5-C30 key subunit by employing the I2-mediated deprotection and intramolecular ketal formation tandem reaction in the presence of NaHCO3 in MeCN. Our work provided flexible and practical approaches to synthesize and derive the 3,5,7-trisubstituted 6,8-dioxabicyclo [3.2.1] octane based analogs to search for new structure HIV-1 integrase inhibitors.

- Zwitterionic sulfobetaine inhibitors of squalene synthase
-
A substantial number of sulfobetaines (e.g., 10) have been synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of squalene synthase (SS) on the basis of the idea that their zwitterionic structure would have properties conducive both to binding in the active site and to passage through cell membranes. When the simple sulfobetaine moiety is incorporated into compounds containing hydrophobic portions like those in farnesyl diphosphate (1) or presqualene diphosphate (2), inhibition of SS in a rat liver microsomal assay was indeed observed. For example, farnesylated sulfobetaine 10 has IC50 = 10 μM and aromatic derivative 35 has IC50 = 2 μM for SS inhibition. A wide variety of structural modifications, exemplified by compounds 43, 52, 76, 85, 91, 99, 111, and 115, was investigated. Unfortunately, no inhibitors in the submicromolar range were discovered, and exploration of a different type of zwitterion seems necessary if this appealing approach to inhibition of SS is going to provide a potential antihypercholesterolemic agent.

NaH promoted coupling reaction of HO(CH2)1O-TBDMS (1, TBDMS=SiMe2(t-Bu)) and Br(CH2)12O-TBDMS (2) followed by deprotection of the organosilyl groups affords HO(CH2)12O(CH2)12OH (5). 1,12-Dodecanediol reacts with an excess amount of 2 in the presence of NaH to give TBDMS-O(CH2)12O(CH2)12O(CH 2)12O-TBDMS (6) which is turned into HO(CH2)12O(CH2)12O(CH 2)12OH (7) by removal of the protecting groups. Similar 1 : 2 condensation of hydroquinone with 2 and with Br(CH2)6O-TBDMS (3) leads to formation of the corresponding α,α-diols, HO(CH2)12OC6H4O(CH2) 12OH (9) and HO(CH2)6OC6H4O(CH2) 6OH (11), respectively. The four new long α,ω-diols are isolated and characterized by means of IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental analyses. Polyaddition reactions of 5, 7, 9, and 11 to 1,3-bis(isocyanatomethyl)benzene and 1,1′-methylenebis[4-isocyanatobenzene] give the corresponding poly(urethane)s in high yields. The obtained polymers, which were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy, have molecular weights over 20000 as determined from gel permeation chromatography using polystyrene standards.

A convergent strategy towards himbacine (1), involving a Julia coupling between aldehyde 5 and sulfone 6 was found to be ineffective. The aldehyde 5 was synthesized via the thermal intramolecular cycloaddition of 4 with preferred formation of the endo-adduct. The Diels-Alder precursor 4 was obtained from butenolide 7, the result of a single-step condensation between the enoate derived from the (Z)-conjugated olefin 12 and 2-acetoxypropanal. In the context of the synthesis of sulfone 6 Taber's method for the synthesis of 2,6-trans-disubstituted piperidine was adapted towards a large scale synthesis of 49, a useful intermediate for the synthesis in this area.

- Optical Isomers of 3,13-Dimethylheptadecane: Sex Pheromone Components of the Western False Hemlock Looper, Nepytia freemani (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)
-
(3S,13R)-3,13-Dimethylheptadecane [(3S,13R)-3,13-dime-17Hy] is the major pheromone component of the western false hemlock looper (WFHL), Nepytia freemani. In comparative gas chromatographic-electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) analyses of stereoselectively synthesized isomers, 1 pg of (3S,13R)-dime-17Hy elicited significantly stronger electrophysiological responses by male WFHL antennae than did 1 pg of separately injected (3R,13R)-, (3R,13S)- or (3S,13S)-3,13-dime-17Hy. In field experiments with individually tested stereoisomers, (3S,13R)-3,13-dime-17Hy was the only stereoisomer to attract males, but the four-stereoisomer blend was 3.6 times more attractive. Quaternary and all binary combinations of (3S,13R)-3,13-dime-17Hy with the other stereoisomers were equally attractive, suggesting that synergistic behavioral activity in WFHL resided with either one of (3R,13R)-, (3R,13S)-, or (3S,13S)-3,13-dime-17Hy. Because optical isomers of (di)methylhydrocarbons do not separate on currently available columns, it remains unknown whether female WFHL also produce a four-stereoisomer pheromone blend. Substitutionality of pheromone stereoisomers without loss of behavioural activity has not previously been reported, but favorably compares with the concept of pheromone redundancy that was first suggested for the multiple pheromone component blend of the cabbage looper moth, Trichoplusia ni.

-
Based on the analysis of the crystal structure of the Ca2+ salt of ionomycin and the chemical and physical data on ionomycin, a number of ionomycin analogues have been synthesized to study the structural features affecting the Ca2+ binding and transport. Compounds 2, 3, and 4 were synthesized to study the effect of additional intramolecular oxygen coordination sites on Ca2+ transport. Compounds 5a-5d were prepared to study the effect of lipid solubility on Ca2+ binding and transport. Compounds 6a-6c were prepared to study the effect of the distance between the β-diketone and the carboxyl group on Ca2+ transport. A general synthetic route to these compounds has been developed. The key reactions in this route are the consecutive regioselective alkylations of the dianion of 2,4-pentanedione with the appropriate bromides.
