Synthesis and biological properties of C-2 triazolylinosine derivatives

O(6)-(Benzotriazol-1H-yl)guanosine and its 2'-deoxy analogue are readily converted to the O(6)-allyl derivatives that upon diazotization with t-BuONO and TMS-N(3) yield the C-2 azido derivatives. We have previously analyzed the solvent-dependent azide·tetrazole equilibrium of C-6 azidopurine nucleosides, and in contrast to these, the O(6)-allyl C-2 azido nucleosides appear to exist predominantly in the azido form, relatively independent of solvent polarity. In the presently described cases, the tetrazole appears to be very minor. Consistent with the presence of the azido functionality, each neat C-2 azide displayed a prominent IR band at 2126-2130 cm(-1). A screen of conditions for the ligation of the azido nucleosides with alkynes showed that CuCl in t-BuOH/H(2)O is optimal, yielding C-2 1,2,3-triazolyl nucleosides in 70-82% yields. Removal of the silyl groups with Et(3)N·3HF followed by deallylation with PhSO(2)Na/Pd(PPh(3))(4) gave the C-2 triazolylinosine nucleosides. In a continued demonstration of the versatility of O(6)-(benzotriazol-1H-yl)purine nucleosides, one C-2 triazolylinosine derivative was converted to two adenosine analogues via these intermediates, under mild conditions. Products were desilylated for biological assays. The two C-2 triazolyl adenosine analogues demonstrated pronounced antiproliferative activity in human ovarian and colorectal carcinoma cell cultures. When evaluated for antiviral activity against a broad spectrum of DNA and RNA viruses, some of the C-2 triazolylinosine derivatives showed modest inhibitory activity against cytomegalovirus.

Novel indole amide derivatives C1-C10 were successfully synthesized and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR, MS, and elemental analysis, and their molecular formulas were C₁₄H₁₀N₆O, C₁₃H₁₀N₄O, C₁₆H₁₃N₃O₂, C₁₉H₁₄N₂O₂, C₁₆H₁₁N₃OS, C₁₅H₁₃N₃O, C₁₂H₉N₅O, C₁₆H₁₀ClN₃OS, C₁₅H₁₇N₃O₂, and C₁₃H₁₄N₂O₃, respectively. The primary biological activities of these compounds were evaluated in vitro by the DPPH assay, H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress injury assay, and cytotoxicity assay. The results indicated that compounds C1, C2, C4, C7, and C9 exhibited DPPH·scavenging ability, while C3, C4, C5, and C8 showed potent growth-inhibitory activities against various human tumor cells, including MDA-MB-231, Hela, A549, and HT29. Interestingly, compound C4 showed potent scavenging effects on the DPPH radical and possessed protective effect on H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress injury in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells at low concentrations; however, C4 exhibited significant toxicity against four human tumor cells at a higher concentration in all treatments, and the range of IC₅₀ value was 7.91 to 13.35 μM.

Synthesis and antitumor activity of 1,8-diaminoanthraquinone derivatives

Continuing our ongoing studies on cytotoxic substances, a series of regioisomeric disubstituted aminoanthraquinone (DAAQ) derivatives have been synthesized as cytotoxic activity based on a proposed bioactive amino conformation. To assess the biological activity of amino-substitution in the side-chains of anthraquinone located at positions 1 and 8 of the anthraquinone ring system. The aim of the study was to determine if members of the anthraquinone family could be used as adjuncts to increase the growth inhibiting effect of anticancer agents in rat glioma C6 cells, human hepatoma G2 cells and 2.2.15 cells. In vitro cytotoxicity data is reported for the compounds and some indications of structure--activity relationships have been discerned. A number of compounds were found to have good cytotoxicity against proliferation in these three cell lines. This has led to the discovery some of the DAAQ as a conformationally constrained structure possessing anticancer properties that displays cytotoxicity for these above cell lines and is being investigated further.
