Reaction of Etanidazole (a 2-nitroimidazole derivative with an amide side-chain containing a hydroxyethyl group) with triflic anhydride gives, depending on conditions, a trifluoromethyl(sulfonyl)oxazolidine via a cyclization reaction, or a fluorine-free formate derivative; reaction with tosyl chloride gives only a chloroethyl derivative. An attempt to replace a Br-atom in a related propyl-containing amide side-chain by a F-atom forms instead a propylene derivative via loss of HBr. The studies stem from interest in use of 2-nitroimidazoles with fluorine-containing amide side-chains as hypoxia markers.

Sixteen novel epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-2 inhibitors (nitroimidazole-substituted 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives (16a-p)) were designed and prepared via the introduction of a nitroimidazole group in the piperidine side chain and modification on the aniline moiety of vandetanib. Preliminary biological tests showed that comparing with vandetanib, some target compounds exhibited excellent EGFR inhibitory activities and anti-proliferative over A549/H446 cells in hypoxia. Meanwhile, several of the above compounds demonstrated better bioactivity than vandetanib in VEGF gene expression inhibition. Owing to the excellent IC50 value (1.64 μmol/L), the inhibition ratios of 16f over A549 and H446 cells were 62.01% and 59.86% at the concentration of 0.5 μM in hypoxia, respectively. All of these results indicated that 16f was a potential cancer therapeutic agent in hypoxia and was worthy of further development.

The syntheses of new nitroimidazole compounds using silicon-[ 18F]fluorine chemistry for the potential detection of tumor hypoxia are described. [18F]silicon-based compounds were synthesized by coupling 2-nitroimidazole with silyldinaphtyl or silylphenyldi-tert-butyl groups and labeled by fluorolysis or isotopic exchange. Dinaphtyl compounds (6, 10) were labeled in 56-71% yield with a specific activity of 45 GBq/μmol, however these compounds ([18F]7 and [18F]11) were not stable in plasma. Phenyldi-tert-butyl compounds were labeled in 70% yield with a specific activity of 3 GBq/μmol by isotopic exchange, or in 81% yield by fluorolysis of siloxanes with a specific activity of 45 GBq/μmol. The labeled compound [18F]18 was stable in plasma and excreted by the liver and kidneys in vivo. In conclusion, the fluorosilylphenyldi-tert-butyl (SiFA) group is more stable in plasma than fluorosilyldiphenyl moiety. Thus, compound [ 18F]18 is suitable for further in vivo assessments.
