Selective estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs) not only block ERα activity but degrade this receptor at the same time and are effective in relapsed ERα positive breast cancer patients who have accepted other endocrine therapies. Herein, through scaffold hopping of coumarin skeleton, a series of 2H-chromene-3-carbonyl-based SERDs with phenyl acrylic acid group as the side chain were designed and synthesized. Compound XH04 containing 7-hydroxy-2H-chromene-3-carbonyl skeleton exhibited the most potent activities in 2D (IC50 = 0.8 μM) and 3D cells culture models (MCF-7) and had the best ERα binding affinity as well. Furthermore, the significant antiestrogen property of compound XH04 was confirmed by inhibiting the expression of progesterone receptor (PgR) mRNA in MCF-7 cells. On the other hand, the outgoing ERα degradation property of compound XH04 was qualitatively and quantificationally verified by immunofluorescence analysis and Western blot assay in MCF-7 cells. Besides, compound XH04 repressed the expression level of Ki67 in MCF-7 cells and induced the apoptosis increase of this tumor cells in a dose-dependent manner like approved-SERD fulvestrant (2), while compound XH04 exhibited better preliminary pharmacokinetics in human and rat liver microsomes in vitro and a lower LogD7.4 value than fulvestrant. And further molecular docking study revealed that compound XH04 possessed a proverbial and typical binding model with ERα like other reported SERD. All these results confirmed that 7-hydroxy-2H-chromene-3-carbonyl structure could be a feasible skeleton for design of ERα antagonists including SERDs and compound XH04 is a promising candidate for further development of ERα + breast cancer therapy agents.

Abstract: Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is of much clinical relevance, and inhibitors of this enzyme are used in the treatment for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders such as depression and Parkinson’s disease. The present study synthesises and evaluates the MAO inhibition properties of a series of 33 1-tetralone and 4-chromanone derivatives in an attempt to discover high-potency compounds and to expand on the structure–activity relationships of MAO inhibition by these classes. Among these series, eight submicromolar MAO-A inhibitors and 28 submicromolar MAO-B inhibitors are reported, with all compounds acting as specific inhibitors of the MAO-B isoform. The most potent inhibitor was a 1-tetralone derivative (1h) with IC50 values of 0.036 and 0.0011?μM for MAO-A and MAO-B, respectively. Interestingly, with the reduction of 1-tetralones to the corresponding alcohols, a decrease in MAO inhibition potency is observed. Among these 1-tetralol derivatives, 1p (IC50 = 0.785?μM) and 1o (IC50 = 0.0075?μM) were identified as particularly potent inhibitors of MAO-A and MAO-B, respectively. Potent compounds such as those reported here may act as leads for the future development of MAO-B specific inhibitors. Graphic abstract: The present study describes the MAO inhibitory activities of a series of 1-tetralone and 4-chromanone derivatives. Numerous high-potency MAO-B specific inhibitors were identified.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Paragraph 0042; 0065-0068, (2020/07/15)
The invention discloses a method for asymmetrically synthesizing glabridin with optical purity, belonging to the field of organic synthesis. According to the invention, 7-hydroxychroman-4-one is usedas a raw material and is subjected to seven successive reactions including a protecting group protection reaction, an enol esterification reaction, an asymmetric addition reaction, a carbonyl reduction reaction, a phenolic hydroxyl protecting group removal reaction, a cyclization reaction and a demethylation reaction so as to finally prepare glabridin with optical purity. The optically pure glabridin is obtained by asymmetrically introducing a chiral center by using a palladium catalyst and an organophosphorus ligand; reaction conditions are mild; operation is convenient; and the method is suitable for industrial application. The raw material is easy to obtain and low in cost, and the product is good in yield and high in stereoselectivity.
