Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a lipogenic enzyme that is selectively upregulated in malignant cells. There is growing consensus on the oncogenicity of FASN-driven lipogenesis and the potential of FASN as a druggable target in cancer. Here, we report the synthesis and FASN inhibitory activities of two novel galloyl esters of trans-stilbene EC1 and EC5. Inhibition of FASN was accompanied by a loss in AKT activation and profound apoptosis in several non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells at the growth inhibitory concentrations of EC1 and EC5. Both FASN and phospho-AKT levels were concurrently downregulated. However, addition of a lipid concentrate to the treated cells reinstated cell viability and reversed the loss of FASN and AKT protein levels, thus recapitulating the causal relationship between FASN inhibition and the loss in cell viability.

Two tandem flow chemistry processes have been developed. A single palladium-catalysed Heck reaction with ethylene gas provides an efficient synthesis for functionalised styrenes. Through further elaboration the catalyst becomes multi-functional and performs a second Heck reaction providing a single continuous process for the synthesis of unsymmetrical stilbenes. In addition, the continuous, rhodium-catalysed, hydroformylation of styrene derivatives with syngas affords branched aldehydes with good selectivity. Incorporation of an in-line aqueous wash and liquid-liquid separation allowed for the ethylene Heck reaction to be telescoped into the hydroformylation step such that a single flow synthesis of branched aldehydes directly from aryl iodides was achieved. The tube-in-tube semi-permeable membrane-based gas reactor and liquid-liquid separator both play an essential role in enabling these telescoped flow processes.
