The colchicine site inhibitors (CSIs) displayed both antimitotic and vascular disrupting activities, therefore are promising potential antitumor agents. In this study, a series 1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-2H-benzo[e]indazoles were found as new CSIs of which the bioactive configuration was locked. Among them, compounds C1 and C2 displayed the best activity, with tubulin polymerization IC50 of 3.4 and 1.5 μM, and growth IC50 of low nanomolar concentrations against human colon cancer cell lines. In addition, compound C1 showed excellent broad-spectrum antitumor activity in the NCI-60 Human Tumor Cell Lines Screen, encouraging further study of this antitumor compound.

To date, it remains challenging to selectively migrate a carbonyl oxygen within a given molecular scaffold, especially to an adjacent carbon. In this work, we describe a simple one- or two-pot protocol that transposes a ketone to the vicinal carbon. This approach first converts the ketone to the corresponding alkenyl triflate, which can then undergo the palladium- and norbornene-catalyzed regioselective a-amination and ipso-hydrogenation enabled by a bifunctional hydrogen and nitrogen donor. The resulting "transposed enamine" intermediate can subsequently be hydrolyzed to produce the 1,2-carbonyl-migrated product. This method allows rapid access to unusual bioactive analogs through late-stage functionalization.

A series of 1-benzylidene-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-2-one derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their biological activities in vitro and in vivo were evaluated. The results showed a number of the title compounds exhibiting potent nanomolar activity in several human cancer cell lines. Of these, compound 22b showed the strongest inhibitory activity against human CEM, MDA-MBA-435, and K562 cells (IC50 = 1 nM), displayed in vitro inhibition of tubulin polymerization (IC50 = 3.93 μM), and significantly induced cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase. In addition, compound 22b could inhibit the tumor growth in colon nude mouse xenograft tumor model significantly and seemed safer than CA-4 when achieving a similar tumor suppression. This study provided a new molecular scaffold for the further development of antitumor agents that target tubulin.
