Isoflavonoids are a class of organic compounds that act primarily as antioxidants. They are produced almost exclusively by various members of the bean family including soybeans, tofu, peanuts, chick peas, and alfalfa. The antioxidant characteristics that isoflavonoids exhibit help hinder the progression of certain cancers, primarily breast, prostate, and colon cancer. We have developed a three-five step synthesis for obtaining a suite of isoflavonoid derivatives. The synthesis involves an enamine formation, a ring closure and halogenation, a Suzuki coupling, and finally a global deprotection to obtain the respective isoflavonoid derivatives.

In a continuation of our search for novel anti-platelet agents, isoflavone quinone and isoflavanquinone were selected as lead compounds and the synthesis of their methoxy derivatives was carried out. Among them, the 4'- and 7-methoxy derivatives were successfully prepared, whereas the attempt to obtain 3'-methoxy derivatives resulted in their isomers, 3'-methoxyflavone quinone and 3'-methoxyflavanquinone, instead. After screening for their anti-platelet, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic activities, a preliminary structure-activity relationship was established. Compounds 6c, 7a - c, 8c and 9a - c were found to exhibit significant activities. In particular, compound 7c demonstrated very potent anti-platelet, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic activities and was then recommended for further pharmacological investigation.
