Forty-eight nitrogen-containing quercetin derivatives were synthesized from readily available rutin or quercetin for the in vitro evaluation of their biological profiles. The WST-1 cell proliferation assay data indicate that thirty-nine out of the forty-eight derivatives possess significantly improved antiproliferative potency as compared with quercetin and fisetin, as well as the parent 3,3′,4′,7-O-tetramethylquercetin toward both androgen-sensitive (LNCaP) and androgen-insensitive (PC-3 and DU145) human prostate cancer cell lines. 5-O-Aminoalkyl-3,3′,4′,7-O-tetramethylquercetins were established as a better scaffold for further development as anti-prostate cancer agents. Among them, 5-O-(N,N-dibutylamino)propyl-3,3′,4′,7-O-tetramethylquercetin (44) was identified as the optimal derivative with IC50 values of 0.55–2.82 μM, being over 35–182 times more potent than quercetin. The flow cytometry-based assays further demonstrate that 44 effectively activates PC-3 cell apoptosis.

On basis of Quercetin moiety, two series of 20 new compounds were designed and synthesized accordingly in this study, and their anti-inflammatory activities in vitro and in vivo were evaluated. At last, compound 8A2: 3- (1- (2- (4- (5-bromo-2-chlorobenzoyl) piperazin-1-yl) ethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) methoxy)-5,7-dimethoxy-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one with low toxicity was found the best one for inhibiting of NO. Meanwhile, this compound could significantly inhibit the expression of IL-6 (Interleukin-6), TNF-α (Tumor necrosis factor-α) and IL-17 (Interleukin-17), and also significantly down-regulate IL-17 mRNA psoriasis model in vitro. Further studies were performed to establish mouse psoriasis model induced by Imiquimod (IMQ), and the preliminary mechanism indicated that compound 8A2 may alleviate mouse psoriasis through obstructed the JAK1/2-STAT1/3 pathway. This study should be provide a basis for further study of effective treatment of psoriasis.

Six rocaglaol derivatives were isolated from Dysoxylum gotadhora, and those compounds showed good cytotoxic activity with IC50 values ranging from 10 to 350 ng/mL against five different cancer cells. Obviously, further total synthesis of rocaglaol derivatives for medical chemistry study is of great significance. Then, twenty six rocaglaol derivatives including 25 new compounds were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against three human cancer cell lines: human colon cancer cells (HCT116), colorectal cancer stem cells (P6C), and human red leukocyte leukemia cells (HEL), using MTT assay. Most of derivatives showed good cytotoxic activities, with the lowest IC50 being 3.2 nM for HEL cells, which was 169 times stronger than that of the positive control (doxorubicin). Further mechanism study indicated that 11k could significantly suppress MAPK pathway in HCT116 cells, which may responsible for induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) are a subgroup of flavonoids possessing various health benefits. 3,5,7,4′-Tetramethoxyflavone (1), 5,6,7,4′-tetramethylflavone (2), 3,7,3′,4′-tetramethoxyflavone (3), 5,7,3′,4′-tetramethoxyflavone (4), 5-hydroxy-3,7,2′,4′-tetramethoxyflavone (5), 3,5,7,2′,4′-pentamethoxyflavone (6), 5-hydroxy-3,7,3′,4′-tetramethoxyflavone (7), 3-hydroxy-5,7,3′,4′-tetramethylflavone (8), 3,5,7,3′,4′-pentamethoxyflavone (9), 5-hydroxy-3,7,3′,4′,5′-pentamethoxyflavone (10), 3-hydroxy-5,7,3′,4′,5′-pentamethoxyflavone (11), and 3,5,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxylflavone (12) were 12 bioactive and available PMFs. The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetic, metabolite, and antitumor activities as well as the structure-pharmacokinetic-antitumor activity relationships of these 12 PMFs to facilitate further studies of their medicinal potentials. The cytotoxicity of PMFs with a hydroxy group toward HeLa, A549, HepG2, and HCT116 cancer cell lines was generally significantly more potent than that of PMFs without a hydroxy group. Compounds 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11 were all undetectable in rat plasma, while compounds 1-4, 6, 9, and 12 were detectable. Both the number and position of hydroxy and methoxy groups played an important role in modulating PMF pharmacokinetics and metabolites.

Based on previous studies, 66 2-phenyl-4H-chromone derivatives containing amide and 1,3,4-oxadiazole moieties were prepared as potential telomerase inhibitors. The results showed most of the title compounds exhibited significantly inhibitory activity on telomerase. Among them, some compounds demonstrated the most potent telomerase inhibitory activity (IC50 50 = 6.41 μM). In addition, clear structure–activity relationships were summarised, indicating that the substitution of the methoxy group and the position, type and number of the substituents on the phenyl ring had significant effects on telomerase activity. Among them, compound A33 showed considerable inhibition against telomerase. Flow cytometric analysis showed that compound A33 could arrest MGC-803 cell cycle at G2/M phase and induce apoptosis in a concentration-dependent way. Meanwhile, Western blotting revealed that this compound could reduce the expression of dyskerin, which is a fragment of telomerase.

A novel synthetic method for flavonol from 2′-hydroxyl acetophenone and benzaldehyde promoted by pyrrolidine under an aerobic condition in water is established. This protocol was supported by efficient synthesis of 44 common examples and three natural products. The α, β-unsaturated iminium ion (enimine ion E) was proved to be the key intermediate in the reaction. H218O and 18O2 isotope tracking experiments demonstrated that both water and the aerobic atmosphere were necessary to ensure the transformation. The selectivity for flavonol or aurone was originated from solvent-triggered intermediates, which were determined by UV-visible spectra from isolated enimine. The phenol-iminium E-A is dominant in water and the ketoenamine intermediate E-B is prevalent in acetonitrile. In the presence of pyrrolidine and oxygen, E-A leads to flavonol through E-I, a zwitterionic-like phenoloxyl-iminium ion, following the key steps of cyclization and a [2 + 2] oxidation; E-B proceeds through path II, a radical process induced by photolysis of E-B with both pyrrolidine and oxygen, to afford aurone. Preliminary mechanistic studies are reported.

Synthesis, physicochemical characterization and pharmacological evaluation of mutual prodrugs of aceclofenac with quercetin, vanillin and l-tryptophan have been attempted to develop novel gastrosparing NSAIDs, devoid of ulcerogenic side effects. The structures of synthesized prodrugs were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectroscopy. The hydrolysis kinetics studies were performed in simulated gastric fluid, simulated intestinal fluid and rat fecal matter. Its anti-inflammatory and ulcer index were analyzed along with estimation of biochemical parameters (GWM and Hexosamine), oxidative parameters (LPO, GSH, CAT, and SOD) and protein estimation. The results indicated that the synthesized prodrugs are chemically stable, biolabile and possesses optimum lipophilicity. They also exhibited retention of anti-inflammatory activity with reduced ulcerogenicity. The study showed that the mutual prodrugs are better in action compared to the parent drug and have fewer gastrointestinal side effects.
