Effect of a substituent on an aromatic group in diastereomeric resolution
Kinbara, Kazushi,Oishi, Koji,Harada, Yoshiko,Saigo, Kazuhiko
, p. 6651 - 6655 (2000)
The diastereomeric resolution of p-substituted 1-arylethylamines by enantiopure (S)-3',4'-methylenedioxymandelic acid ((S)-2) was carried out in order to know how an electron-donating or -withdrawing group on the aromatic group of the racemic amines would affect the efficiency of resolution. As a result, it was found that 1-arylethylamines having an electron-withdrawing substituent could be efficiently resolved by (S)-2, while the amines having an electron-donating group could not. The crystal structures of the less- and more-soluble salts, and the molecular orbital calculations of the ammonium cations indicated that the p-substituted electron-withdrawing group enhanced the positive charge on the meta-hydrogen of the aromatic group of the ammonium cations, which is favorable for the formation of a CH···π interaction in crystal.

Microtubule-targeting agents (MTAs) are a class of clinically successful anti-cancer drugs. The emergence of multidrug resistance to MTAs imposes the need for developing new MTAs endowed with diverse mechanistic properties. Benzoxazepines were recently identified as a novel class of MTAs. These anticancer agents were thoroughly characterized for their antitumor activity, although, their exact mechanism of action remained elusive. Combining chemical, biochemical, cellular, bioinformatics and structural efforts we developed improved pyrrolonaphthoxazepines antitumor agents and their mode of action at the molecular level was elucidated. Compound 6j, one of the most potent analogues, was confirmed by X-ray as a colchicine-site MTA. A comprehensive structural investigation was performed for a complete elucidation of the structure-activity relationships. Selected pyrrolonaphthoxazepines were evaluated for their effects on cell cycle, apoptosis and differentiation in a variety of cancer cells, including multidrug resistant cell lines. Our results define compound 6j as a potentially useful optimized hit for the development of effective compounds for treating drug-resistant tumors.

THE CHEMOENZYMATIC reaction of selected aldehydes, namely 2-chlorobenzaldehyde (1a), 4-fluorobenzaldehyde (1b), benzo[d][1,3]dioxole-5-carbaldehyde (1c) and/or 2,3-dihydrobenzo [b] [1,4] dioxine-6-carbaldehyde (1d) with hydrogen cyanide in presence of (R)-oxynitrilase (R)-Pa HNL [EC 4.1.2.10] from almonds, as a chiral catalyst, gave the optically active cyanohydrin enantiomers ( R)-2a-c, respectively. Acetone cyanohydrin (3), was also used, as a transcyanating agent, to give the same products. The racemic cyanohydrins (R,S)-2a-d have been synthesized, as well, by treating compounds 1a-d with aqueous potassium cyanide solution in presence of a saturated solution of sodium metabisulphite (Na2S2O5). The optical purity of cyanohydrins (R)-2a-c was determined through their derivatization with (S)-naproxen chloride (S)-5 to the respective diastereomers (R,2S)-6a-c which were obtained in diastereomeric excess (de) values up to 93 % (1H NMR). Heating compounds (R)-2a,b and / or their racemic analogues (R,S)-2a-c with concentrated hydrochloric acid gave the respective α-hydroxycarboxylic acids 7a-c. Moreover, reduction of cyanohydrins (R,S)-2b,c under different conditions resulted in a hydrodecyanation giving the respective primary alcohols 8a,b. Structures and configurations of the new compounds were confirmed with compatible elementary microanalyses and spectroscopic (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS and single crystal X-ray crystallography) measurements. The antimicrobial activity of derivatives 6a-d against four bacterial species (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and two fungi (Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans) were undertaken. Moreover, compounds (R,2S)-6b, (R,2S)(S,2S)-6b and (R,2S)-6c were screened for their in virto antitumor activity against three human solid cancer cell lines (HCT 116, HepG2 and MCF-7). In general, the tested compounds were found inactive or showed weak activities in comparison with the standard drugs.
