Tubulin binding compounds represent one of the most attractive targets for anticancer drug development. They broadly fall into two categories viz., tubulin polymerization inhibitors, which block microtubule growth and destabilize microtubules like vinca alkaloids and cryptophycins, and the others, which polymerize microtubules into hyperstable forms represented by family of taxanes. In this context, we aimed at design and synthesis of cryptophycins based macrocyclic depsipeptides, which are synthetically more accessible, however have the basic information to target tubulins and establish structure activity relationship (SAR). Thus, a new class of cryptophycins based marocyclic depsipeptides with a truncated epoxide chain were synthesized as potential tubulin inhibitors. The resultant lead analogues 15a and 16a exhibited good anti-cancer activity, induced apoptosis, caused block/delay in cell cycle as well as significantly reduced the expression of α- and β-tubulins. Molecular modelling studies show that 15a and 16a bind in the same domain as that of cryptophycins.

Two efficient protocols for the synthesis of tert-butyl (5S,6R,2E,7E)-5-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-oxy]-6-methyl-8-phenyl-2,7-octadie noate, a major component of the cryptophycins, are reported. The first utilized the Noyori reduction and Frater alkylation of methyl 5-benzyloxy-3-oxopentanoate to set two stereogenic centers, which became the C16 hydroxyl and C1' methyl of the cryptophycins. The second approach started from 3-p-methoxybenzyloxypropanal and a crotyl borane reagent derived from (-)-α-pinene to set both stereocenters in a single step and provided the dephenyl analogue, tert-butyl (5S,6R,2E)-5-[(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy]-6-methyl-2,7-octadienoate, in five steps. This compound was readily converted to the 8-phenyl compound via Heck coupling. The silanyloxy esters were efficiently deprotected and coupled to the C2-C10 amino acid fragment to provide desepoxyarenastatin A and its dephenyl analogue. The terminal olefin of the latter was further elaborated via Heck coupling. Epoxidation provided cryptophycin-24 (arenastatin A).

A convergent synthesis of cryptophycins has been developed in which (5S,6R)-5-hydroxy-6-methyl-8-phenylocta-2(E),7(E)-dienoic acid (A) is coupled with an amino acid segment (B). Two stereo-selective routes to A are described, the first employing allylatio

Arenastatin A (1, cryptophycin 24) was synthesized by convergence of hydroxy ester 16 with amino acid derivative 27; two independent and highly efficient routes to 16 are disclosed.

Several members of the Cryptophycin family were synthesised using a straightforward convergent approach. The proposed synthetic route was used to prepare novel analogs of Cryptophycins A and B in which the benzylic epoxide moiety was replaced by alternate electrophilic functions. The effect of these modifications on cytotoxic activity was determined on several tumor cell lines.
