The reaction of aromatic acetyl derivatives with 2 molar amounts of benzyltrimethylammonium tetrachloroiodate in acetic acid at 70 deg C for several hours gave dichloroacetyl derivatives in good yields.

Dichloroacetophenone is a pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1) inhibitor with suboptimal kinase selectivity. Herein, we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of novel dichloroacetophenones. Structure-activity relationship analyses (SARs) enabled us to identify three potent compounds, namely 54, 55, and 64, which inhibited PDK1 function, activated pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, and reduced the proliferation of NCI-H1975 cells. Mitochondrial bioenergetics assay suggested that 54, 55, and 64 enhanced the oxidative phosphorylation in cancer cells, which might contribute to the observed anti-proliferation effects. Collectively, these results suggested that 54, 55, and 64 could be promising compounds for the development of potent PDK1 inhibitors.

1-Arylethanones are readily chlorinated with an aqueous HCl-H 2O2 system using ethanol as a cosolvent. The reaction prceeds rapidly and results in selective conversion of 1-arylethanones into 1-aryl-2,2-dichloroethanones in yields of 48-89%, depending on the nature of the substituent in the aryl group.
