We report herein the design and synthesis via click chemistry of twelve novel triazole retinoid analogues of tamibarotene (AM80) and the evaluation of their anticancer activities against six cancer cell lines: HL60, K562, 786, HT29, MCF7 and PC3. Among the synthesized compounds, two were more potent than tamibarotene against solid tumor cells, and one of them had similar potency to tamibarotene against HL60 cells. The bioisosteric exchange between the amide group and the 1,2,3-triazole core in the retinoid agent tamibarotene (AM80) reported in this work is a valid strategy for the generation of useful compounds against cancer.

Aryl iodides and bromides were easily converted to their corresponding aromatic carboxylic acids via a Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reaction using silacarboxylic acids as an in situ source of carbon monoxide. The reaction conditions were compatible with a wide range of functional groups, and with the aryl iodides, the carbonylation was complete within minutes. The method was adapted to the double and selective isotope labeling of tamibarotene.
Selective alkylation of βII-tubulin and thioredoxin-1 by structurally related subsets of aryl chloroethylureas leading to either anti-microtubules or redox modulating agents

Aryl chloroethylureas (CEUs) are potent anti-neoplastic agents alkylating specific intracellular proteins such as βII-tubulin. Recently we have identified a new subset of CEU derived from compound 36 that alkylates thioredoxin isoform 1 (Trx-1), inhibits the nuclear translocation of Trx-1, and favors the accumulation of cells in G0/G1 phase. We have evaluated the effects of various substituents and their position on the aromatic ring of a series of derivatives of 36 on (i) the anti-proliferative activity, (ii) the cell cycle progression, (iii) the nuclear translocation of Trx-1, and (iv) their covalent binding to β-tubulin. The same experiments were performed on representative CEU derivatives where the 2-chloroethyl amino moiety is replaced by either an ethyl, a 2-aminooxazolinyl or a 2-chloroacetyl group. On one hand, our results suggest that CEUs substituted on the phenyl ring at position 3 or 4 by cycloalkyl and substituted cycloalkyl or cycloalkoxy groups inhibit the nuclear translocation of Trx-1 and arrest the cell cycle progression in G0/G1. On the other hand, CEUs substituted by a fused aromatic ring, an aliphatic chain, or a fused aliphatic ring are alkylating βII-tubulin but not Trx-1. Beside the expected inactivity of the ethylurea derivatives, none of the modification to the electrophilic moiety led to cross-selectivity of the drugs toward β-tubulin but increased the anti-proliferative activity and resulted in mitigated effects on Trx-1 translocation.
