Pharmacological properties of dicyanidoaurate(I)-based complexes: characterization and single crystal X-ray analysis

The synthesis of three bimetallic cyanido complexes with edbea [2,2′-(ethylenedioxy)bis(ethylamine)] ligand is reported. [Ni^II(μ-edbea)₂{Au(μ-CN)₂}₂]_n (1), [{Cu^II(edbea)}₂{Au(μ-CN)₂}₄]_n (2) and [Cd^II(edbea)₂][Au(CN)₂]₂·H₂O (3) were fully characterized by elemental, infrared, XRD (3), ESI-MS and thermal analysis. The DNA/BSA binding properties of these complexes were evaluated by spectrophotometric titration, fluorometric ethidium bromide kinetics, and DNA electrophoresis studies and their partially minor groove binding mode between the base pairs of DNA and electrostatic interaction between the amino acid residues of BSA were explained. The complexes were tested for their pharmacological properties. These molecules had excellent in vitro antiproliferative activity and also exhibited a strong tumor inhibiting effect against HT29, HeLa, C6 and Vero cell lines. These complexes had metastatic features as they are able to reduce cell migration activity and suppress tumor growth in vitro. Analysis of the DNA topoisomerase I relaxing activity indicates that the complexes do not inhibit topoisomerase I which regulates the topological states of the DNA double helix during DNA processing reactions. The TUNEL and DNA laddering assay results indicated that these compounds may destroy cell maintenance by triggering apoptosis. Immunohistochemistry staining analysis demonstrated that these complexes significantly decreased the expression of Bcl-2 in HeLa and HT29 cells while increasing the expression of P53 levels. Overall, the potent antiproliferative activity, low cytotoxic effect, good solubility, and micro molar range dosage observed for these complexes emphasizes their potential as anticancer drug candidates.     

手性苯并咪唑铜(Ⅱ)络合物催化合成1,1''''-联-2萘酚

In the past several decades, much attention has been paid to optically active, C2-asymmetric 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-diol and its derivatives because of their application in inducing chirality in asymmetric synthesis[1,2]. Enantiomerically pure 1,1′-binaphthalene-2,2′-diol has been prepared by many methods ranging from the classical resolution via crystallization of the diastereoisomeric salts[3] to asymmetric oxidative coupling[4～6].

Methyl trifluoropyruvate in the Pictet-Spengler reaction

Condensation of methyl trifluoropyruvate with 2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylamine, tryptamine, and (D, L)-tryptophan yielded 1-methoxycarbonyl-1-trifluoromethyl-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, 1-methoxycarbonyl-1-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole, and Z-1-methoxycarbonyl-1-trifluoromethyl-3-carboxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole, respectively. The Z configuration of the latter was determined by x-ray structural analysis.A. N. Nesmayanov Institute of Organoelemental Compounds, Russian Academy of Sciences, 117813 Moscow, Russia.

Reactions of 2,3-Dioxopyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines with Ammonia and Aliphatic Amines

Reactions of 3-[N-chloroacetylamino-N-(4-nitrophenyl)]-2-formylindole with alkylamines

The reactions of 3-[N-chloracetylamino-N-(4-nitrophenyl)]-2-formylindole (1a) with 2-(N, N-dialkylamino)ethylamines afford complex condensation products 7b,c consisting of two similar but not identical diazepinoindole fragments. For the reaction of compound 1a with 3-(N,N-diethylamino)propylamine, the process occurs in a different manner, and the predominant product is 4-ethylaminopropyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-2-oxo-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydro[1,4]diazepino[6,5-b]indole hydrocloride (14). Two routes of these unexpected transformations were proposed. The structures of the synthesized products were proved by the ¹sH and ¹³C NMR, HMBC, and HSQC (direct proton-carbon correlation) spectra.
