- Total synthesis of podophyllotoxin and select analog designs via C–H activation
-
An account of our previously disclosed total synthesis of the aryltetralin lignan natural product podophyllotoxin, a building block used in the synthesis of the FDA-approved anticancer drug etoposide, is disclosed. A C–H activation disconnection was viewed as being amenable to the preparation of E-ring modified analogs but proved challenging to execute. Various insights into palladium-catalyzed C–H arylation reactions on complex scaffolds are reported ultimately leading to the implementation of this strategy and the synthesis of compounds inaccessible by semisynthetic means.

- Chemoenzymatic Total Synthesis of Deoxy-, epi-, and Podophyllotoxin and a Biocatalytic Kinetic Resolution of Dibenzylbutyrolactones
-
Podophyllotoxin is probably the most prominent representative of lignan natural products. Deoxy-, epi-, and podophyllotoxin, which are all precursors to frequently used chemotherapeutic agents, were prepared by a stereodivergent biotransformation and a biocatalytic kinetic resolution of the corresponding dibenzylbutyrolactones with the same 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase. The reaction can be conducted on 2 g scale, and the enzyme allows tailoring of the initial, “natural” structure and thus transforms various non-natural derivatives. Depending on the substitution pattern, the enzyme performs an oxidative C?C bond formation by C?H activation or hydroxylation at the benzylic position prone to ring closure.

- Synthesis and Biological evaluation of novel 4β-[(5-substituted)-1,2,3,4-tetrazolyl] podophyllotoxins as anticancer compounds
-
A series of novel 4β-[(5-substituted)-1,2,3,4-tetrazolyl] podophyllotoxin derivatives were synthesized by employing azide-nitrile click chemistry approach. All the derivatives were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against a panel of four human cancer cell lines and their IC50 values were found to be in the range of 2.4-29.06 μM. The cytotoxicity exhibited by the majority of test compounds were found to comparable and often more effective than doxorubicin and all compounds exhibited higher cytotoxicity on A-549 cell lines. Cell cycle analysis showed that the novel 4β-[(5-substituted)-1,2,3,4-tetrazolyl] podophyllotoxins resulted in cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and were also found to be the potent inhibitors of tubulin polymerization in vitro.

(Chemical Equation Presented). The TOP2 poison etoposide has been implicated in the generation of secondary malignancies during cancer treatment. Structural similarities between TOP2 isoforms challenge the rational design of isoform-specific poisons to further delineate these processes. Herein, we describe the synthesis and biological evaluation of a focused library of etoposide analogues, with the identification of two novel small molecules exhibiting TOP2B-dependent toxicity. Our findings pave the way toward studying isoform-specific cellular processes by means of small molecule intervention.

-
A series of new 4β-benzoxazolepodophyllotoxin compounds (9a-j) were prepared and screened for cytotoxicity against four human tumour cell lines (HeLa, DU-145, A-159 and MCF-7). Among these compounds, 9a, 9c, 9f and 9i have shown more potent anticancer activity than etoposide with considerable IC50 values. Apoptosis evaluation studies were performed using the Hoechst-33258 staining method and it was found specially that the best active compound 9i shows clear nuclear damage compared to etoposide. Molecular docking studies were also carried out to recognize the interactions against DNA topoisomerase-II and it was found that the energy calculations were in good agreement with the observed IC50 value.

- Ci-H bond arylation in the synthesis of aryltetralin lignans: A short total synthesis of podophyllotoxin
-
A short total synthesis of podophyllotoxin, the prototypical aryltetralin lignan natural product, is reported. Key to the success of this synthetic pathway is a Pd-catalyzed C(sp3)-H arylation reaction enabled by a conformational biasing element to promote C-C reductive elimination over an alternative Ci-N bond-forming pathway. This strategy allows for access to the natural product in five steps from commercially available bromopiperonal, and sheds light on subtle conformational effects governing reductive elimination pathways from high-valent palladium centers. Testing a new tactic: In a concise synthesis of podophyllotoxin with a crucial palladium-catalyzed arylation step, subtle conformational effects govern reductive elimination pathways from the high-valent palladium center. This route to aryltetralin lignan derivatives may be of interest in drug discovery.

- Natural products-based insecticidal agents 6. Design, semisynthesis, and insecticidal activity of novel monomethyl phthalate derivatives of podophyllotoxin against Mythimna separata Walker in vivo

To discover the more potent analogs, 12 novel monomethyl phthalate derivatives of podophyllotoxin were synthesized and preliminarily tested against the pre-third-instar larvae of Mythimna separata Walker in vivo at the concentration of 1 mg/mL. Compounds 8e-i showed the higher insecticidal activity than podophyllotoxin. Especially 8g exhibited the most potent insecticidal activity compared with toosendanin, a commercially available insecticide derived from Melia azedarach. The structure-activity relationships demonstrated that trans-lactone, 4β-substitution, 2β-chlorine substitution, and 4′-methoxy group were the important structural properties of podophyllotoxins for good insecticidal activity.
