Cytotoxic ring A-modified steroid analogues derived from Grundmann's ketone
Mayer, Christoph D.,Bracher, Franz
, p. 3227 - 3236 (2011)
A series of steroid and azasteroid analogues containing a six-membered ring A with various functionalities were synthesized. Furthermore, the syntheses of tetracyclic analogues bearing a five-membered A-ring and the syntheses of a number of bicyclic secosteroid analogues were carried out. All compounds were tested for their antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic activities. Among all tested compounds 7 and 9 showed outstanding cytotoxic activities but were devoid of antimicrobial activities. The cytotoxic activities of compounds 7, 9 and 10 were initially verified by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in a one-dose 60 cell assay. In accordance with our results 7 and 9 satisfied pre-determined threshold inhibition criteria for progression to the 5-dose NCI screening, which revealed a selective activity profile for both candidates.

Neglected tropical diseases caused by parasitic infections are an ongoing and increasing concern. They are a burden to human and animal health, having the most devastating effect on the world′s poorest countries. Building upon our previously reported triazole analogues, in this study we describe the synthesis and biological testing of other novel heterocyclic acetogenin-inspired derivatives, namely 3,5-isoxazoles, furoxans, and furazans. Several of these compounds maintain low-micromolar levels of inhibition against Trypanosoma brucei, whilst having no observable inhibitory effect on mammalian cells, leading to the possibility of novel lead compounds for selective treatment.

A gold-catalyzed synthesis of tetrasubstituted 1,3-enynes from hypervalent iodine(III) reagents and activated alkenes is reported. This reaction involves an in situ formed alkynyl Au(III) species and a subsequent direct C(sp2)-H functionalization of alkenes, offering 26 enynes in 62-92% yield with excellent functional group tolerance.

Bicyclo[1.1.1]pentylamines (BCPAs) are of growing importance to the pharmaceutical industry as sp3-rich bioisosteres of anilines and N-tert-butyl groups. Here we report a facile synthesis of 1,3-disubstituted BCPAs using a twofold radical functionalization strategy. Sulfonamidyl radicals, generated through fragmentation of α-iodoaziridines, undergo initial addition to [1.1.1]propellane to afford iodo-BCPAs; the newly formed C-I bond in these products is then functionalized via a silyl-mediated Giese reaction. This chemistry also translates smoothly to 1,3-disubstituted iodo-BCPs. A wide variety of radical acceptors and iodo-BCPAs are accommodated, providing straightforward access to an array of valuable aniline-like isosteres.
