Abstract
Oximes are known for their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities. Frequently, modification of biologically active carbonyl compounds into oximes leads to increased activity. The present study reports the reactivity of 2-alkanoylnaphthohydroquinones against hydroxylamine under aerial conditions. Results show that, depending on the structure of the hydroquinones, the reaction proceeds through two different chemical pathways to produce 2-(hydroxyamino)-1,4-naphthoquinone and their C-3 (hydroxyimino)alkyl derivatives. Both the formation of the quinoid compounds under aerial oxidation and C-C cleavage reactions of hemiaminal intermediates are discussed. In vitro screening of the substituted 1,4-naphthoquinones on a panel of cancer cells reveals moderate cytotoxic activities. Compound 19, 2-(hydroxyamino)-1,4-naphthoquinone, stands out by its anticancer potency against prostate cancer cells as shown by the lowest IC50 value (8.08 μM) and the best selectivity index (3.90).
