Abstract
This study introduces a straightforward synthetic approach for generating 7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]phenanthridine analogs through visible-light-induced cyclization, showing promise as antitumor agents. Unexpectedly, the incorporation of 1,1'-diarylethylene as an additive significantly boosts yield. Through mechanistic investigations, we uncover its crucial role as a trap for the methyl radical formed after the N-O bond cleavage of O-acetyl oxime, promoting intramolecular cyclization of a nitrogen-centered imine radical. These insights into the mechanism pave the way for transformative advancements in this synthesis strategy.

Chem Biodivers 2024; 21:e202400719.

Abstract
A versatile and efficient chemo selective synthesis of 4-aryl-3-formyl-2H-chromenes (AFC) was undertaken using Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling conditions. The key oxidative transmetalation was successfully applied to a significant range of substitutions on the chromene moiety and aryl ring in Ar(BOH)3, accommodating both electron-rich and electron-deficient groups. These π-extended scaffolds exhibited green-yellow fluorescence with a large Stokes shift and high quantum yield. Measurement of photophysical properties revealed that the compound with methoxy substitution in the chromene ring, 3t, caused a significant bathochromic shift. The AFCs obtained from this method can be transformed into biologically active 4-aryl-3-iminoantipyrine-2H-chromenes (AAC) through functionalization of the formyl chromenes. The AFCs and AACs with methoxy substitutions (3t and 4e) were docked against AChE inhibition, and compound 4e had the lowest binding energy of -11.20 kcal/mol. DFT calculations performed on representative compounds revealed that compound 4e is more reactive than 3t, which is in accordance with the docking studies.

Abstract
A proficient approach has been developed for the synthesis of substituted 2H-chromenes from C1-substituted glucal. The key step of our synthetic methodology was C-H activation in propylene carbonate solvent followed by 6π-electrocyclization aromatization in ethylene glycol as greener substitutes to toxic aprotic solvents, to obtain 2H-chromenes in a stepwise manner. The application of the developed methodology was further explored with the synthesis of a small library of substituted 2H-chromenes in good yields.

Abstract
Novel 2-[2-(chroman-4-ylidene)hydrazinyl]-4/5-substituted thiazole derivatives (2a-i) were synthesized and investigated for their anticancer activity. Cytotoxic activity on A549 and NIH/3T3 cell lines was determined, most of the compounds exhibited high cytotoxic profile with selectivity. Selected compounds 2b, 2c, 2e, 2g, 2h, and 2i were tested to determine induction of apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and cell cycle arrest. The results showed that the compounds induced apoptosis intrinsically that they triggered loss of mitochondrial potential through increasing the accumulation of cells in G2/M. Besides, intrinsic apoptotic pathway was supported by down-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and up-regulation of proapoptotic protein Bax. Molecular docking study for compounds 2b, 2c, and 2g was promoted experimental outcomes.

Exploring Diverse-Ring Analogues on Combretastatin A4 (CA-4) Olefin as Microtubule-Targeting Agents. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21051817.

Abstract
Combretastatin-4 (CA-4) as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor draws extensive attentions. However, due to its weak stability of cis-olefin and poor metabolic stability, structure modifications on cis-configuration are being performed. In this work, we constructed a series of novel CA-4 analogues with linkers on olefin containing diphenylethanone, cis-locked dihydrofuran, α-substituted diphenylethanone, cyclobutane and cyclohexane on its cis-olefin. Cytotoxic activity of all analogues was measured by an SRB assay. Among them, compound 6b, a by-product in the preparation of diphenylethanone analogues, was found to be the most potent cytotoxic agents against HepG2 cells with IC50 values of less than 0.5 μM. The two isomers of 6b induced cellular apoptosis tested by Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide (PI) double staining, arrested cells in the G2/M phase by PI staining analysis, and disrupted microtubule network by immunohistochemistry study in HepG2 cells. Moreover, 6b-(E) displayed a dose-dependent inhibition effect for tubulin assembly in in vitro tubulin polymerization assay. In addition, molecular docking studies showed that two isomers of 6b could bind efficiently at colchicine binding site of tubulin similar to CA-4.

Abstract
Combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) is a natural anti-cancer agent isolated in 1989 from the African willow tree, Combretum caffrum. Due to its chemical simplicity, this (Z)-stilbene has been the subject of many structural modifications mainly to improve its chemical and metabolic stability. Beside a large number of synthetic analogues, isoCombretastatin A-4 (isoCA-4), has proved to be a solution of choice since this non-natural isomer of CA-4 is stable, easier to synthesize and has equivalent antitumor properties as CA-4. In this review, we will present the structure-activity relationships (SARs) around isoCA-4 since its discovery in 2007. In a first part, we will describe some alternatives to replace the phenol B-ring of isoCA-4, then we will focus on the variations made on the 1,1-ethylene double bond and then, we will evocate very recent exiting results concerning the possible replacements of the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl A-ring of isoCA-4 by suitable heterocycles.

Abstract
Heteroaryl compounds are valuable building blocks in medicinal chemistry and chemical industry. A palladium-catalyzed direct α-C(sp3) heteroarylation of ketones under microwave irradiation is developed and reported in this study. Under optimized conditions, twenty-eight (28) heteroarylated ketones were prepared in this study to demonstrate the substrate scope of this reaction. The ground-state optimized structure of Pd(0) active catalyst with 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2',4',6'-triisopropylbiphenyl (XPhos) in toluene, and the products of its reaction with 3-bromopyridine and acetophenone were studied using all-atom density functional theory. This study provided insightful information for palladium catalytic system design to generate heteroaryl compounds.

Abstract
We report the synthesis and metabolic and biological evaluation of a series of 17 novel heterocyclic derivatives of isocombretastatin-A4 (iso-CA-4) and their structure-activity relationships. Among these derivatives, the most active compound, 4f, inhibited the growth of a panel of seven cancer cell lines with an IC50 in the low nanomolar range. In addition, 4f showed interesting activity against CA-4-resistant colon-carcinoma cells and multidrug-resistant leukemia cells. It also induced G2/M cell-cycle arrest. Structural data indicated binding of 4f to the colchicine site of tubulin, likely preventing the curved-to-straight tubulin structural changes that occur during microtubule assembly. Also, 4f disrupted the blood-vessel-like assembly formed by human umbilical-vein endothelial cells in vitro, suggesting its function as a vascular-disrupting agent. An in vitro metabolism study of 4f showed its high human-microsomal stability in comparison with that of iso-CA-4. The physicochemical properties of 4f may be conducive to CNS permeability, suggesting that this compound may be a possible candidate for the treatment of glioblastoma.

Abstract
Two series of novel 2-arylvinyl-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazol-3-ium iodide derivatives and 2-arylvinyl-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazol-3-ium bromide derivatives were designed and synthesized by the structural combination of YM155 with stilbenoids. All compounds were tested for anti-proliferative activity against PC-3, A375 and HeLa human cancer cell lines. Two of the compounds were selected for further investigation: 12b, which showed potent cytotoxicity against the three tested cell lines with IC50 values in the range of 0.06-0.21 μM, and 7l, which displayed excellent selectivity for PC-3 cells with an IC50 of only 22 nM. Western blot analysis results indicated that both 12b and 7l suppress the expression of Bcl-2 and Survivin proteins, which helps induce apoptosis. As determined by the percent of Annexin V-FITC-positive apoptotic cells, 12b was not only significantly more effective than 7l at a concentration of 100 nM in PC-3 cells but also induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner with more potency than 7l at a concentration of 1000 nM in A375 cells. Therefore, compound 12b was chosen for further in-depth studies investigating the mechanism of apoptosis. The results showed that it could activate caspase-3, hydrolyze PARP, and even inactivate ERK. Moreover, 12b arrested A375 cells at S phase in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner, while having a visible effect on microtubule dynamics. In addition, (E)-2-(2-(1H-indol-3-yl)vinyl)-1-benzyl-3-(2-methoxyethyl)-4,9-dioxo-4,9-dihydro-1H-naphtho[2,3-d]imidazol-3-ium bromide (12b) exhibited significant antitumor activity when evaluated in a subcutaneous solid tumor model. Our study reveals that 2-arylvinyl-substituted naphtho[2,3-d]imidazolium scaffolding is a promising new entity for the development of multi-target anticancer drugs.

Abstract
[3+2] reactions play a key role in constructing various pharmaceutical moleculars. In this study, using Mn(OAc)3 mediated and 1,3-dipolar [3+2] cyclization reactions, 38 novel dihydrofuran and dihydroisoxazole analogues of isoCA-4 were synthesized as inhibitors of tubulin polymerization. Among them, compound 6g was found to be the most potent cytotoxic agents against PC-3 cells with IC50 value of 0.47μM, and compound 5p exhibted highest activity on HeLa cells with IC50 vaule of 2.32µM. Tubulin polymerization assay revealed that 6g was a dose-dependent and effective inhibitor of tubulin assembly. Immunohistochemistry studies and cell cycle distribution analysis indicated that 6g severely disrupted microtubule network and significantly arrested most cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle in PC-3 cells. In addition, molecular docking studies showed that two chiral isomers of 6g can bind efficiently and similarly at colchicine binding site of tubulin.

Abstract
The synthesis and evaluation of a new series of IsoCombretaQuinolines (IsoCoQuines) 2 with a 2-substituted-quinoline in place of the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring present in isoCA-4 and CA-4 are described. Most of these compounds displayed a potent cytotoxic activity (IC50 < 10 nM) against a panel of five human cancer cell lines and inhibited tubulin assembly at a micromolar level. The most potent analogue 2b, having a 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl as B-ring, led to cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase. Docking studies indicate that 2b showed a binding mode comparable to those previously observed with quinazoline analogous (IsoCoQ) and with isoCA-4 at the colchicine binding site of tubulin.

Abstract
Thirty-two novel 3-alkylsulfanyl-1,2,4-triazole derivatives, designed as cis-restricted combretastatin A-4 analogues, were synthesized and evaluated for their antiproliferative activities. The results indicated that analogue 20 showed more potent antiproliferative activities against PC-3 cell lines than positive control CA-4. Particularly, the most promising compound 25 displayed 5-fold improvement compared to CA-4 in inhibiting HCT116 cell proliferation with IC50 values of 1.15 μM. Further flow-activated cell sorting analysis revealed that compound 20 displayed a significant effect on G2/M cell-cycle arrest in a dose-dependent manner in PC-3 cells. From this study, analogues 20 and 25 were the most potent anti-cancer agents in this structural class, and were considered lead compounds for further development as anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
A series of novel isocombretaquinazolines (isoCoQ) 4 were quickly prepared by coupling N-toluenesulfonylhydrazones with 4-chloroquinazolines under palladium catalysis. These compounds, which can be regarded as isocombretastatin A-4 (isoCA-4) analogues that lack the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring, displayed nanomolar-level cytotoxicity against various human cancer cell lines and were observed to effectively inhibit tubulin polymerization. The isoCoQ compounds 2-methoxy-5-(1-(2-methylquinazolin-4-yl)vinyl)phenol (4 b), 4-[1-(3-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)vinyl]-2-methylquinazoline (4 c), and 2-methoxy-5-(1-(2-methylquinazolin-4-yl)vinyl)aniline (4 d), which respectively bear the greatest resemblance to isoCA-4, isoFCA-4, and isoNH2 CA-4, are able to arrest HCT116 cancer cells in the G2 /M cell-cycle phase at very low concentrations. Preliminary in vitro antivascular assay results show that 4 d is able to disrupt a network of capillary-like structures formed by human umbilical vein endothelial cells on Matrigel. All these results clearly demonstrate that replacement of the 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl ring of isoCA-4 with a quinazoline nucleus is a feasible approach toward new and highly promising derivatives with the potential for further development as antitubulin agents.
