Despite the advances in treatment strategies, cancer is still the second leading cause of death in the USA. A majority of the currently used cancer drugs have limitations in their clinical use due to poor selectivity, toxic side effects and multiple drug resistance, warranting the development of new anticancer drugs of different mechanisms of action. Here we describe the design, synthesis and initial biological evaluation of a new class of antimitotic agents that modulate tubulin polymerization. Structurally, these compounds are chalcone mimics containing a 1-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)ethan-1-one moiety, which was initially introduced to act as a metal-binding group and inhibit histone deacetylase enzymes. Although several analogues selectively inhibited purified HDAC8 with IC50 values in low micromolar range, tissue culture studies suggest that HDAC inhibition is not a major mechanism responsible for cytotoxicity. The compounds demonstrated cell growth inhibition with GI50 values of upper nanomolar to low micromolar potency with significant selectively for cancer over normal cells. Interestingly, several compounds arrested HeLaM cells in mitosis and seem to target tubulin to cause mitotic arrest. For example, when combined with inhibitors of Aurora B kinase, they led to dramatic disassembly of the mitotic spindle. In-vitro tubulin polymerization studies showed that the compounds reduced the rate of polymerization of microtubules during the elongation phase and lowered the amount of polymerized tubulin during the plateau phase. Finally, in silico docking studies identified binding of IPE-7 to the colchicine site with similar affinity as the test compound D64131. These compounds represent a new antimitotic pharmacophore with limited HDAC inhibitory activity.

Water works: An efficient palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between boronic acids and bromoacetate with aminophosphine ligand
Peng, Zhi-Yong,Wang, Jian-Ping,Cheng, Jiang,Xie, Xiao-Min,Zhang, Zhaoguo
experimental part, p. 8238 - 8241 (2010/10/21)
Water greatly restrained the formation of self-coupling of boronic acids in a palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between boronic acids and ethyl bromoacetate with an aminophosphine ligand; good to excellent yields of cross-coupling product were obtained.

Mercuric fluoride (HgF2), as a light-sensitive inorganic compound, in the presence of dioxygen is able to convert various α-aryl- and α,α-diarylcarboxylic acids into the corresponding aldehydes and ketones selectively under photoirradiation via trapping of the benzylic radical by O2.

The in situ prepared three component system Pd(OAc)2/1,3- bis(alkyl) imidazolinium halide LHX (1-5)/Cs2CO3 catalyses the arylation of diethyl malonate efficiently with accompanying dealkoxycarbonylation. Imidazolinium salts with bulky benzyl and alkoxyethyl groups were found to be the most efficient and afforded α-arylacetates in high yields when employing a wide variety of substrates.
