Adamantaneacetic and adamantanecarboxylic acid esters containing 3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzyl, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl, or 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenyl groups were synthesized as unusual analogs of natural antitumor and anti-tubulin agents combretastatin A-4 and 2-methoxyestradiol. The compounds were found to possess noticeable cytotoxicity to epithelial human carcinoma cell line A549 (EC50 = 4.3—81 μmol L–1). An ability to cause complete depolymerization of microtubule network of A549 cells was demonstrated for 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenyl adamantan-1-ylacetate (6a) at a concentration of 100 μmol L–1. Ester 6a belongs to a new structural type, which is unusual for the ligands of the tubulin colchicine domain, and is an interesting lead compound for further structural optimization.

The paper describes a convenient method for the diastereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted alkenes through the lithium amide mediated union of ketones and diethyl maleate. The reaction has been shown to proceed via a Michael initiated - condensation - elimination (MICE) sequence.

A practical method is disclosed for the reduction of activated primary and secondary amides into aldehydes using diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL-H) in toluene. A wide range of aryl and alkyl N-Boc, N,N-diBoc and N-tosyl amides were converted into the corresponding aldehydes in good to excellent yields. Reduction susceptible functional groups such as nitro, cyano, alkene and alkyne groups were found to be stable. Broad substrate scope, functional group compatibility and quick conversions are the salient features of this methodology.

Cancer cell proliferation in some organs often depends on conversion of pyruvate to oxaloacetate via pyruvate carboxylase (PC) for replenishing the tricarboxylic acid cycle to support biomass production. In this study, PC was identified as the cellular target of erianin using the photoaffinity labeling-click chemistry-based probe strategy. Erianin potently inhibited the enzymatic activity of PC, which mediated the anticancer effect of erianin in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Erianin modulated cancer-related gene expression and induced changes in metabolic intermediates. Moreover, erianin promotes mitochondrial oxidative stress and inhibits glycolysis, leading to insufficient energy required for cell proliferation. Analysis of 14 natural analogs of erianin showed that some compounds exhibited potent inhibitory effects on PC. These results suggest that PC is a cellular target of erianin and reveal the unrecognized function of PC in HCC tumorigenesis; erianin along with its analogs warrants further development as a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of HCC.

Paragraph 0045; 0050, (2021/05/29)
The invention discloses a synthesis method of a 2-benzoxepin compound. The method comprises the following specific steps: under the protection of nitrogen, adding N-phenylseleno-phthalimide into a reactor, then adding anhydrous dichloromethane to dissolve the N-phenylseleno-phthalimide, then adding a 1-[(cinnamyl) methyl]-3, 4, 5-trimethoxybenzene compound, taking zinc chloride as a catalyst, reacting at room temperature, adding saturated sodium bicarbonate for quenching after the reaction is finished, extracting by dichloromethane, combining organic phases, drying by anhydrous magnesium sulfate, concentrating under reduced pressure, and performing silica gel rapid chromatographic purification by thin-layer chromatography silica gel to obtain the 2-benzoxepin compound. The method is simple in reaction operation, mild in reaction condition, relatively high in yield, environment-friendly and suitable for large-scale industrialized production.
