An array of 12 new saphenamycin analogues modified at the benzoate moiety was synthesized on solid support. Synthesis commenced with a chemoselective anchoring of saphenic acid through the carboxyl group to a 2-chlorotrityl functionalized polystyrene resin. The secondary alcohol was acylated in parallel with a series of differently substituted benzoic acid derivatives. Treatment with TFA-CH2Cl2 (5:995) released the expected saphenamycin analogues into solution. These new analogues were purified, characterized and screened for antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis and Proteus mirabilis. Eight analogues exhibited MIC values against B. subtilis ranging from 0.07 to 3.93 μg/mL, comparable to the activities of previously reported saphenamycin analogues.

Analogues of 9-oxo-9H-xanthene-4-acetic acid (XAA) bearing small, lipophilic 5-substituents are among the most dose-potent compounds yet reported with the capability of causing hemorrhagic necrosis of implanted colon 38 tumors in mice.To further extend structure-activity relationships among this class of compound, a series of XAA derivatives bearing two small lipophilic groups at various positions have been prepared and evaluated.The 5,6-disubstituted compounds in particular show consistently high levels of both dose potency and activity, suggesting this is the optimal configuration among substituted 9-oxo-9H-xanthene-4-acetic acids.The 5,6-dimethyl and 5-methyl-6-methoxy are the most effective analogues, showing in vivo colon 38 activity comparable to that of FAA at 10-15-fold lower doses and superior activity to FAA at the respective optimal doses, and the former has been selected for detailed evaluation.

In a search for compounds related to flavoneacetic acid with activity against solid tumors, a series of methyl- methoxy-, chloro, nitro-, and hydroxy-substituted xanthenone-4-acetic acids have been synthesized and evaluated against subcutaneously implanted colon adenocarcinoma 38 in vivo, using a short-term histology assay as a primary screening system.A major goal of this work was to identify compounds with similar profiles of activity to that of flavoneacetic acid but of higher potency.The level of activity of the compounds appeared to depend more on the nature of the substituent than its positioning, in the order Cl > Me, OMe > NO2, OH.However, the potency of the compounds was related much more to the position rather than the nature of the substitution, with 5-substituted compounds being clearly the most dose potent. 5-Methylxanthenone-4-acetic acid has a similar level of activity to that of flavoneacetic acid in the test systems employed but is more than 7-fold as does potent.
