- Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of cyclic arylidene ketones: a direct comparison of monobenzylidene and dibenzylidene derivatives
-
Abstract To give further insight into the influence of the structural modifications of enones and dienones on their antiproliferative properties, 25 derivatives of enones: (E)-2-benzylidene-1-cyclohexanones, (E)-2-benzylidene-1-tetralones, (E)-2-benzylidene-1-indanone, and dienones: (E,E)-2,5- or 2,6-dibenzylidene-1-cyclanones, (E,E)-3,5-dibenzylidene-4-piperidones were synthesized using a newly developed "one-pot" synthetic method. Due to the fact that all of them have the same aryl substituents (phenyl or 4-chlorophenyl) in the arylidene moiety, it is possible to compare the relevant contribution of the single-point structural modifications (type of ring or N-substitution) on their potency on the basis of their IC 50 values. Their antiproliferative activity was evaluated against the following four human adherent cancer cell lines: HeLa, A431, A2780, and MCF7. The cytotoxicity screen has revealed that the dibenzylidene dienones in general dominate the monobenzylidene enones in this respect. The nitrogen-containing heterocyclic dienones at the same time displayed higher inhibitory properties toward these human carcinoma cell lines compared with their homocyclic dienone analogs. One of the eight newly prepared 4-piperidone derivatives, N-(γ-oxobutyl)-(E,E)-3,5-bis(p-chlorobenzylidene)-4-piperidone is as potent a cell growth inhibitor (IC 50 of 0.438-1.409 μM) as the N-methyl-(E,E)-3,5-bis(p-chlorobenzylidene)-4-piperidone (IC 50 of 0.447-1.048 μM), one of the most active among the previously described compounds in this series. Catalytic hydrogen-transfer isomerization of compounds with two exocyclic benzylidene double bonds to derivatives with endocyclic double bonds results in the complete loss of antiproliferative activity. The structural modifications and 50 % inhibitory concentration (IC 50) values resulted in correlations which can promote the design of more potent derivatives of the 4-piperidone dienones.
