In our continued effort to address the challenges of selective sp3 C-H fluorination on complex molecules, we report a sensitized aliphatic fluorination directed by terpenoidal enones using catalytic benzil and visible light (white LEDs). This sensitized approach is mild, simple to set up, and an economical alternative to our previous protocol based on direct excitation using UV light in a specialized apparatus. Additionally, the amenability of this protocol to photochemical flow conditions and preliminary evidence for electron-transfer processes are highlighted.

In the realm of aliphatic fluorination, the problem of reactivity has been very successfully addressed in recent years. In contrast, the associated problem of selectivity, that is, directing fluorination to specific sites in complex molecules, remains a great, fundamental challenge. In this report, we show that the enone functional group, upon photoexcitation, provides a solution. Based solely on orientation of the oxygen atom, site-selective photochemical fluorination is achieved on steroids and bioactive polycycles with up to 65 different sp3 C-H bonds. We have also found that γ-, β-, homoallylic, and allylic fluorination are all possible and predictable through the theoretical modes reported herein. Lastly, we present a preliminary mechanistic hypothesis characterized by intramolecular hydrogen atom transfer, radical fluorination, and ultimate restoration of the enone. In all, these results provide a leap forward in the design of selective fluorination of complex substrates that should be relevant to drug discovery, where fluorine plays a prominent role.

In order to study the structure-activity relationship with respect to the cytotoxicity of steroidal oximes, several 6E-hydroximino-4-ene steroids and their O-alkylated derivatives were synthesized. The oxime ethers were solidified and purified by preparing their corresponding oxalate salts. The new derivatives as well as some previously synthesized ones were evaluated for in vitro antineoplastic activity against a panel of 60 cancer cell lines at 10 μM. The oximes and oxime ethers were found to have moderate to good antiproliferative activity against various leukemia, colon, melanoma, and renal cancer cell lines. Several 6E-hydroximino-4-ene steroids and their O-alkylated derivatives were synthesized. Their structure-activity relationship with respect to the cytotoxicity of steroidal oximes was studied. The oximes and oxime ethers were found to have moderate-to-good antiproliferative activity against various leukemia, colon, melanoma, and renal cancer cell lines.

scheme or table, p. 377 - 383 (2011/08/03)
Varied positioning of the hydroximino group on the parental steroid skeleton results in remarkable changes in the antineoplastic activity profile of the compounds. Here, the compound 7-oximino-5-androstene and its O-alkylated derivatives have been prepared and screened for cytotoxic and aromatase inhibitory activity. The steroidal 7-oximino ether derivatives exhibited insignificant cytotoxic effects when screened against three cancer cell lines, MCF-7 (breast), NCl-H460 (lung), and SF-268 (CNS) at 100 μM. However, the imidazolyl-substituted steroidal oxime ethers displayed moderate inhibition of cytochrome P450 aromatase.

Zinc(II) iodide-triethylsilane: A novel mild reduction system for direct deoxygenation of aryl aldehydes, ketones, and α,β-unsaturated enones

experimental part, p. 3053 - 3057 (2009/07/03)
ZnI2-TESH has been found to be a novel mild and efficient reduction system. This reagent, in contrast to the traditional ionic deoxygenation systems (TFA-R3SiH, BF3·OEt 2-R3SiH, etc.), could directly deoxygenate different kinds of carbonyl compounds such as aryl aldehydes, ketones, and αβ- unsaturated enones to the corresponding hydrocarbons in moderate to excellent yields.

Mild and selective deprotection method of acetylated steroids and diterpenes by dibutyltin oxide
Wang, Shao-Min,Zhang, Yan-Bing,Liu, Hong-Min,Yu, Guo-Bin,Wang, Ke-Rang
, p. 26 - 30 (2007/10/03)
Dibutyltin oxide (DBTO) was first utilized for the deacetylation of steroid and diterpene esters. The results showed the deprotection of acetylated steroids and diterpenes separately with moderate catalysis dibutyltin oxide in methanol selectively removed part acetyl groups of these substrates, whereas several functional groups of the steroids and diterpenes were retained and neither isomerization nor degradation of these substrates was observed. It seems that the acetyl groups with lower steric hindrance or near carbonyl, alkoxy, or hydroxyl groups can be cleaved by the reaction, whereas the acetyl groups with higher steric hindrance or without carbonyl, alkoxy, or hydroxyl groups neighboring were retained under the same conditions. One of the interesting results obtained was the selective hydrolysis of the 3β-O-acetyl group in the presence of the 6β group in 3β,6β-Di-O-acetyl-5α-hydroxypregn-16-en-20-one. This allows for subsequent introduction of one unit at C-3 and the other unit at C-6. This procedure is useful for the synthesis of a series of closely related isomers of 3β,5α,6β-trihydroxypregn-16-en-20-one and other widespread polyhydroxysteroids in marine organisms and some terrestrial species.

A sex hormone, 37β-acetoxy-17β-hydroxy-androst-5-ene (1) (CAS 1639-43-6), was isolated from aerial parts of Acacia nilotica. This compound is reported to have anti-inflammatory activity. In view of this, considering this molecule as a lead molecule different androstene compounds were synthesized to study their potency and structure-activity relationship with respect to local anti-inflammatory activity. The experiments indicated that 17 ketonic compounds were more active towards inflammation than their oxime analogues. Similarly, for the compounds containing an acetyl group fixed at C-3 position a decreasing trend of activity was observed in the order of ketonic, hydroxyl, oxime and acetyl group, respectively, when these groups are at C-17 position.
