Abstract
Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts are polyfunctionalized compounds that result from a three-component reaction involving an electrophilic sp2 carbon (aldehyde, ketone or imine) and the α-position of an activated alkene, catalyzed by a tertiary amine. These adducts exhibit a wide range of biological activities and act as valuable starting materials for developing drug candidates, pesticides, polymers, and other applications. In this regard, the present review aimed to explore the biological potential of Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts and their derivatives as documented in patent literature. Additionally, the review delves into the synthetic methodologies employed in their preparation.

He J, Dou M, Xie J, Hou S, Liu Q, Hu Z, Zhang B, Zheng S, Yin F, Zhang M, Xie C, Lu D, Ding X, Zhu C, Sun R. Discovery of zeylenone from Uvaria grandiflora as a potential botanical fungicide. PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2021; 77:5407-5417. [PMID: 34314099 DOI: 10.1002/ps.6580] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2021] [Revised: 05/18/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Botanical pesticides play an important role in organic agricultural practices and are widely used in integrated pest management (IPM). Uvaria grandiflora was mainly reported as traditional medicines and possessed antibacterial, antioxidant, and antiprotozoal activities. Therefore, important biological activities of U. grandiflora may suggest that they have the potential to be used as botanical pesticides. RESULTS The extract of U. grandiflora exhibited broad-spectrum inhibitory activity toward phytopathogenic fungi and oomycetes, particularly against Colletotrichum musae and Phytophthora capsici, and its secondary metabolite zeylenone also displayed strong antifungal and anti-oomycete activities against phytopathogens. Particularly, half maximal effective concentration (EC50 ) values of zeylenone against Phytophthora capsici and C. musae were 6.98 and 3.37 μg mL-1 , showing better inhibitory effects than those of commercial fungicides (azoxystrobin and osthole). Additionally, the pot experiments showed that the extract of U. grandiflora could effectively control Pseudoperonospora cubensis, Phytophthora infestans, Phytophthora capsici and Podosphaera xanthii. In the field experiment, 5% microemulsion of U. grandiflora extract exhibited 79.72% efficacy against cucumber powdery mildew at 87.5 g ha-1 on the 14th day after two sprayings, which was better than that of 21.5% trifloxystrobin and 21.5% fluopyram SC at 200.9 g ha-1 . Surprisingly, 5% microemulsion of U. grandiflora extract could promote cucumber growth significantly. Furthermore, the action mechanism analysis indicated that zeylenone may damage the cytoderm and affect energy metabolism of Phytophthora capsici. CONCLUSION It is the first time that the extract of U. grandiflora and zeylenone have been discovered leading to broad application prospects in the development as botanical fungicides. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Sun Z, Yang S, Xu C, Yi F, Cao L, Tian Y, Lin J, Xu X. Concise total synthesis of (+)-Zeylenone with antitumor activity and the structure-activity relationship of its derivatives. Bioorg Chem 2021; 116:105333. [PMID: 34537516 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2021.105333] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2021] [Revised: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 09/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
Natural products--polyoxygenated cyclohexenes exhibited potent anti-tumor activity, such as zeylenone, which is a natural product isolated from Uvaria grandiflora Roxb. This article will attempt to establish a gram-scale synthesis method of (+)-zeylenone and explain the structure-activity relationship of this kind of compound. Total synthesis of (+)-zeylenone was completed in 13 steps with quinic acid as the starting material in 9.8% overall yield. The highlight of the route was the control of the three carbon's chirality by single step dihydroxylation. In addition, different kinds of derivatives were designed and synthesized. Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assay was used for evaluating antitumor activity against three human cancer cell lines. The structure--activity relationship suggested that compounds with both absolute configurations exhibited tumor-suppressive effects. Moreover, hydroxyls at the C-1/C-2 position were crucial to the activity, and the esterification of large groups at C-1 hydroxyl eliminated the activity. Hydroxyl at the C-3 position was also important as proper ester substituent could increase the potency.

Cytotoxic polyoxygenated cyclohexene derivatives from the aerial parts of Uvaria cherrevensis. Fitoterapia 2019; 137:104182. [PMID: 31145985 DOI: 10.1016/j.fitote.2019.104182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2019] [Revised: 05/23/2019] [Accepted: 05/27/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Three previously undescribed polyoxygenated cyclohexene derivatives named cherrevenol M (1), cherrevenol N (2), and cherrevenone (3), together with nine related known analogues 4-12 were isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction partitioned from the methanol extract of the aerial parts of Uvaria cherrevensis (Annonaceae). The determination of the structures and their relative configurations of the isolated compounds were established by spectroscopic techniques, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) analysis as well as comparison with the literature data. For cherrevenone (3), the relative and absolute configurations were also confirmed by using X-ray diffraction and ECD techniques, respectively. Compounds isolated except for compounds 8 and 10 were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity and cherrevenone (3) showed moderate cytotoxic activity against all cancerous cell lines except for ASK cell line with ED50 values ranging from 1.04 ± 0.13 to 10.09 ± 4.31 μM.
