A general protocol for visible-light-induced cyclopropanation of alkenes was developed with bromomethyl silicate as a methylene transfer reagent, offering a robust tool for accessing highly valuable cyclopropanes. In addition to α-aryl or methyl-substituted Michael acceptors and styrene derivatives, the unactivated 1,1-dialkyl ethylenes were also shown to be viable substrates. Apart from realizing the cyclopropanation of terminal alkenes, the methyl transfer reaction has been further demonstrated to be amenable to the internal olefins. The photocatalytic cyclopropanation of 1,3-bis(1-arylethenyl)benzenes was also achieved, giving polycyclopropane derivatives in excellent yields. With late-stage cyclopropanation as the key strategy, the synthetic utility of this transformation was also demonstrated by the total synthesis of LG100268.

Based on the observed anticancer activity of chalcones and retinoids, a novel class of retinoid-chalcone hybrids was designed and synthesized. As part of our ongoing studies to discover natural product based anticancer compounds, the retinoid-chalcone hybrids were tested against the colon cancer cell line HT-29. Retinoid like moiety was introduced through Friedel-Crafts alkylation of toluene. Among the synthesized compounds, the cyano derivative (E)-3-(3-oxo-3-(3,5,5,8,8-pentamethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl) prop-1-enyl)benzonitrile 8 showed submicromolar inhibitory activity with an IC50 of 0.66 μM.

Conformational effects on retinoid receptor selectivity. 2. Effects of retinoid bridging group on retinoid X receptor activity and selectivity

The natural retinoid 9-cis-retinoic acid is an activating ligand for both the retinoic acid receptors (BARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs), which are members of the retinoid/thyroid hormone/steroid hormone family of nuclear receptor proteins that activate gene transcription through specific response elements. The pharmacophoric groups necessary to confer RXR selectivity were established by evaluating the ability of 21 conformationally restricted retinoids to activate the TREpal retinoic acid receptor response element for gene transcription in the presence of one of the three PAR subtypes or RXRα. In contrast to those retinoids selective for the RARs, these RXR-selective retinoids have one less atom in the bridge linking the hydrophobic and carboxylic acid termini of the retinoid skeleton. Therefore, a one-carbon bridge replaces the 19-methyl group and 9E-double bond of 9-cis-retinoic acid and is further functionalized by inclusion in an isopropylidene group, a dioxolane ring, or a cyclopropane ring for optimal RXRα activity and selectivity. In addition, the β-geranylidene and 20-methyl-(11E,13E)- dienoic acid groups of 9-cis-retinoic acid are replaced by a 5,6,7,8- tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthalenyl ring and a 4-carboxylphenyl ring, respectively, for optimal activation and selectivity. RXRα selectivity is reduced on replacement of the 4-carboxylphenyl group by a 2-carboxyl-5- thienyl group or the 9-cis-retinoic acid methylpentadienoic acid terminus.

Treatment of mammals afflicted with tumors with compounds having RXR retinoid receptor agonist activity
-
, (2008/06/13)
Retinoid-like compounds which act as agonists of the RXR retinoid receptor sites induce apoptosis of tumor cells in cell cultures, and are used as drugs to treat tumors in mammals including humans. Compounds which are specific agonists of RXR receptors and also compounds which are agonists of both RAR and RXR agonist (pan-agonists) induce apoptosis, although the RXR agonist compounds are preferred as drugs to avoid undesirable side effects associated with RAR agonist activity. The RXR agonists compounds are administered to mammals afflicted with tumors in pharmaceutical compositions adapted for systemic topical or for intralesional administration. The range of concentration of the active ingredient RXR agonist compound in the pharmaceutical compositions is approximately between 0.001 and 5 percent by weight, and such that the composition delivers approximately 0.1 mg to 100 mg of the active ingredient per kg body weight of the patient, per day of treatment.
