چکیده

Most Annonaceous acetogenins are characterized by between one and three THF ring(s) with one or two flanking hydroxyl group(s) in the center of a C32/34 fatty acid, and the terminal carboxylic acid is combined with a 2-propanol unit to form an alpha,beta-unsaturated gamma-lactone. While many studies have addressed the properties and synthesis of natural acetogenins due to their attractive biological activities and unique structural features, a number of analogues have also been described. This review covers the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of acetogenin analogues.

Design, synthesis of symmetrical bivalent mimetics of annonaceous acetogenins and their cytotoxicities.

A new series of linear dimeric compounds mimicking naturally occurring annonaceous acetogenins have been synthesized by bivalent analogue design, and their cytotoxicities have been evaluated against the growth of cancer cells by MTT method. Most of these compounds show selective action favored to human cancer cell lines over normal cell lines, and compound 9 with bis-terminal benzoquinone funct...

Historic perspectives on Annonaceous acetogenins from the chemical bench to preclinical trials.

Studies on the Annonaceous acetogenins began after the first cytotoxic acetogenin, uvaricin, was isolated in 1982. This attractive finding made many medicinal and natural product chemists direct their efforts on the isolation and identification of these classes of compounds. As more Annonaceous acetogenins were isolated, more information about them was uncovered. From their structural identific...

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Peptide-Like Analogues as Selective COX-2 Inhibitors

A new series of peptide-like derivatives containing different aromatic amino acids andpossessing pharmacophores of COX-2 inhibitors as SO2Me or N3 attached to the para positionof an end phenyl ring was synthesized for evaluation as selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)inhibitors. The synthetic reactions were based on the solid phase peptide synthesis methodusing Wang resin. One of the analogues, i...
