摘要:
The novel C10-modified camptothecin analogs, and pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof, of the present invention: (i) possess potent antitumor activity (i.e., in nanomolar or subnanomolar concentrations) for inhibiting the growth of human and animal tumor cells in vitro; (ii) are potent inhibition of Topoisomerase I; (iii) lack of susceptibility to MDR/MRP drug resistance; (iv) require no metabolic drug activation: (v) lack glucuronidation of the A-ring or B-ring; (vi) reduce drug-binding affinity to plasma proteins; (vii) maintain lactone stability; (viii) maintain drug potency; and (ix) possess a low molecular weight (e.g., MW
摘要:
Disclosed herein are novel platinum-based analogs with a single substituted azole ligand: RN=NR7, wherein the RN=NR7 functional group is covalently bonded to the platinum through nitrogen of NR7. The analogs also have nitrogen donor ligands capable of forming hydrogen bonds with the bases in DNA or RNA, and one or more leaving groups which can be displaced by water, hydroxide ions or other nucleophiles, which is thought to form active species in vivo, and then, form cross-linked complexes between nucleic acid strands, principally between purines in DNA (or RNA), i.e., at the Guanine or Adenine bases, thereof. These platinum analogs may also be more easily transported into tumor cells, due to their increased lipophilicity and are likely to be useful as anti¬ neoplastic agents, and in modulating or interfering with the synthesis or replication or transcription of DNA or translation or function of RNA in vitro or in vivo, as they are potentially capable of forming a platinum coordinate complex with an intact or nascent DNA or RNA and thereby interfering with cellular synthesis, transcription or replication of nucleic acid polynucleotides.
摘要:
A process for synthesizing pharmaceutically active disulfides, particularly Dimesna and certain derivatives thereof. The process includes reacting an alkylene salt with a sulfurating reagent, then alkalizing the intermediate and flowing oxygen through the mixture to produce the final compound in high yield.
摘要:
A synthetic process is disclosed for coupling amino acids to a substrate. The process involves dissolving the amino acid and the scaffold in a non-polar aprotic solvent, and agitating the resulting mixture for a predetermined time. The process is specially suited to the synthesis of antifolate compounds having useful applications in the medical fields of oncology, inflammatory diseases and others.
摘要:
The present invention discloses and claims five (5) novel, highly efficient synthetic routes for the total synthesis of enantiomerically-pure (i.e. , 99%) 7-(2'-trimethylsilyl)ethyl camptothecin (BNP1350; Karenitecin; Cositecan). These aforementioned synthetic schemes are the first to disclose the total syntheses of 7-(2'-trimethylsilyl)ethyl camptothecin using a highly novel direct, non-linear and convergent synthetic strategy which involves annealing the key C7- (trimethylsilyl)ethyl side chain-bearing A ring key synthons to an enantiomerically-pure tricyclic pyridone; rather than through the conventional methodology which incorporates the C7- (trimethylsilyl)ethyl side chain as the final synthetic step on a totally synthesized camptothecin parent compound. The current novel synthetic approaches reported herein since utilize desirably functionalized A- ring with preinstalled trimethyl silyl ethyl side chain, the aforementioned synthetic methodologies have a wider scope of making wide range of pharmaceutically relevant A-ring substituted BNP1350 analogs by substituting desirably functionalized nitro or protected amino phenyl carboxy A-ring as the starting material.
