Combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) is a well-studied and attractive molecular template to develop new antimitotics. Several thousand of modifications were performed on the ring B and the ethenyl bridge of CA-4 but only a few involved the trimethoxyphenyl moiety (TMP, ring A) often considered essential to the antiproliferative and antimicrotubule activities. In this study, we described the design, the preparation, the characterization and the biological evaluation of three new series of CA-4 analogs namely styryl-Nphenyl- N'-ethylureas (SEUs), styryl-N-phenyl-N'-(2-chloroethyl)ureas (SCEUs) and styrylphenylimidazolidin-2-ones (SIMZs) bearing a 3-Cl (series a), 3,5-Me (series b) and TMP (series c) substituents, respectively. All SCEU and SIMZ Z-isomers were active in the high and the low nanomolar range, respectively. Conversely to SEUs and their E-isomers that were significantly less active or inactive. Interestingly, the TMP moiety is giving rise to derivatives exhibiting the lowest antiproliferative activity in the SCEU series (10c) and the most active compound in the SIMZ series (12c). Moreover, SIMZ Zisomers bearing either a 3-Cl (12a) or a 3,5-Me (12b) exhibited antiproliferative activities that are also in the same order of magnitude as 12c. All SCEU and SIMZ Z-isomers also arrested the cell cycle progression in G2/M phase, bound to the colchicine-binding site and disrupted the cytoskeleton of cancer cells. In addition to the promising and innovative microtubule-disrupting properties of SCEUs and SIMZs, these results show that the TMP moiety is not essential for the cytocidal activity of these new CA-4 analogs.

To identify novel multi-target-directed drug candidates for the treatment of cancer, a series of benzoselenazole-stilbene hybrids were synthesised by combining the pharmacophores of resveratrol and ebselen. The biological assay indicated that all of the h

A new and highly stereoselective synthesis of (E)-4′-amino-3,4,5- trimethoxystilbene was achieved by using 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and p-nitrotoluene as starting materials through condensation under solvent-free condition and followed by the reducing

A series of new resveratrol analogues were designed and synthesized and their inhibitory activities against aromatase were evaluated. The crystal structure of human aromatase (PDB 3eqm) was used to rationalize the mechanism of action of the aromatase inhibitor 32 (IC50 0.59 μM) through docking, molecular mechanics energy minimization, and computer graphics molecular modeling, and the information was utilized to design several very potent inhibitors, including compounds 82 (IC50 70 nM) and 84 (IC50 36 nM). The aromatase inhibitory activities of these compounds are much more potent than that for the lead compound resveratrol, which has an IC50 of 80 μM. In addition to aromatase inhibitory activity, compounds 32 and 44 also displayed potent QR2 inhibitory activity (IC 50 1.7 μM and 0.27 μM, respectively) and the high-resolution X-ray structures of QR2 in complex with these two compounds provide insight into their mechanism of QR2 inhibition. The aromatase and quinone reductase inhibitors resulting from these studies have potential value in the treatment and prevention of cancer.
