The cyclohexene moiety of the tricyclic 6,7-diaryl-tetrahydro-6H-benzo[c]chromene core of palodesangrens could be assembled in a biomimetic and step-economical fashion by the Diels-Alder reaction between the electron-rich (E)-1,3-butadienylarenes as the diene and the electron-deficient chalcones as the dienophile. During the reduction of ketone to the corresponding alcohol by LiAlH4, the mixture of endo and exo isomers underwent a novel diastereoconvergent LiAlH4-mediated isomerization to install the desired stereochemistry at C10a. Subsequent pyran ring closure under acidic conditions installed the stereochemistry at the remaining C6. Overall, the tricyclic core of palodesangrens could be prepared in three steps and up to 38% yield.

Paragraph 0024; 0026, (2016/10/07)
The invention provides an eriodictyol synthesis method. According to the eriodictyol synthesis method, isovanillin and 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone are selected as starting materials, and eriodictyol is obtained through the following five steps: firstly, performing MOMCl protection on a hydroxyl of isovanillin; secondly, performing MOMCl protection on a hydroxyl of 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone; thirdly, performing an aldol condensation reaction to generate chalcone; fourthly, performing Michael addition and cyclization; finally, carrying out MOM deprotection to obtain eriodictyol of which the total yield is 50-65%. As isovanillin and 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone are selected as the starting materials, the eriodictyol synthesis method is high in yield and suitable for industrialized production.

A new and efficient total synthesis has been developed to obtain plagiochin G (22), a macrocyclic bisbibenzyl, and four derivatives. The key 16-membered ring containing biphenyl ether and biaryl units was closed via an intramolecular SNAr reaction. All synthesized macrocyclic bisbibenzyls inhibited Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation induced by the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in Raji cells and, thus, are potential cancer chemopreventive agents.

Twenty-five novel pyranochalcone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo antiproliferative activities. Among them, compound 10i exhibited superior potent activity against 21 tumor cell lines including multidrug resistant phenotype with the IC50 values ranged from 0.09 to 1.30 μM. In addition, 10i significantly induced cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase, promoted tubulin polymerization into microtubules and caused microtubule stabilization. Further studies confirmed that 10i significantly suppressed the growth of tumor volume in HepG2 xenograft tumor model. Our study demonstrated that 10i could have beneficial antitumor activity as a novel microtubule stabilizing agent.
Enantioselective synthesis of orthogonally protected (2R,3R)-(-)- epicatechin derivatives, key intermediates in the de novo chemical synthesis of (-)-epicatechin glucuronides and sulfates

Ten orthogonally protected (-)-epicatechin and 3′- or 4′-O-methyl-(-)-epicatechin derivatives were prepared in a regiospecific and enantioselective manner. For each orthogonally protected (-)-epicatechin derivative, one specific phenolic hydroxyl was protected with a methoxymethyl (MOM) or p-methoxybenyzl (PMB) group and the remainder were protected as benzyl ethers. These uniquely protected (-)-epicatechin derivatives were designed to facilitate the regiospecific installation of a glucuronic acid or sulfate unit onto (-)-epicatechin after selective removal of the MOM or PMB protecting group to provide authentic standards of (-)-epicatechin glucuronides and sulfates.

Aggregated β-amyloid (Aβ) plays crucial roles in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis, therefore blockade of Aβ aggregation is considered as a potential therapeutic target. We designed and synthesized small molecules to reduce Aβ-induced cytotoxicity by inhibiting Aβ aggregation. The small molecules were screened via ThT, MTT, and cell-based cytotoxicity assay (Aβ burden assay). Selected compounds 1c, 1d, 1e, and 1f were then investigated by evaluating their effects on cognitive impairment of acute AD mice model. Learning and memory dysfunction by injection of Aβ(1-42) was recovered by administration of these molecules. Especially, 1d showed the best recovery activity in Y-maze task, object recognition task, and passive avoidance task with dose dependent manner. These results suggest that 1d has high potential as a therapeutic agent for AD.
