The natural products moracins O and P exhibited potent in vitro inhibitory activity against hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1), which is a key mediator during adaptation of cancer cells to tumour hypoxia. Systematic variations of the structures of benzofuran type moracins were made and structure-activity relationship analysis showed the importance of the 2-arylbenzofuran ring and the (R)-configuration of the core scaffold. Further evaluation of the representative compound 5 showed its inhibitory effect on HIF-1α protein accumulation and target gene expression under hypoxia.
A mild anionic method for generating o-quinone methides: Facile preparations of ortho-functionalized phenols

, p. 3435 - 3441 (2007/10/03)
A low-temperature method for generating o-quinone methides is described which permits facile introduction of assorted R substituents onto the aryl ring system at low temperature. The method is useful for the efficient preparation of ortho-ring-alkylated phenols.
