Expeditious and practical synthesis, photophysical and electrochemical properties of functionalized phenanthrene derivatives
2023, Journal of Molecular StructureCitation Excerpt :The formation of the phenanthrene backbone has gained a great deal of interest owing to its presence in many natural substances [1–3]. Compounds with such structural feature also manifest attractive biological activities [4–6]. Furthermore, the construction of the phenanthrene unit was found to be the key step in the synthesis of a number of phenanthrene-based alkaloids [7–11].
Novel seco-phenanthroquinolizidine alkaloids from Indonesian Boehmeria virgata
2021, Phytochemistry LettersCitation Excerpt :Although compound 2 was inactive, the related pileamartine D with a bond between C-4a and C-4b showed selective cytotoxic activity in a recent study (Doan Thi Thuy et al., 2019) suggesting that a rigid phenanthrene structure is beneficial for cytotoxicity. In addition, although cryptopleurine (4) was not tested in this study due to insufficient quantity, it exhibits nanomolar cytotoxic activity against many HTCLs as reported in other studies (Doan Thi Thuy et al., 2019); (Banwell et al., 2006). Similarly, reduced cytotoxicity was previously reported for some seco-phenanthroquinolizidine (Banwell et al., 2006) and phenanthroindolizidine derivatives (Lykkeberg et al., 2002); (Stærk et al., 2000)
Visible light-mediated, rose Bengal-catalyzed oxidative radical C[sbnd]H cyclization of alkyl 1,1′-biaryl-2-ones: An efficient synthesis of 10-alkylphenanthren-9-ols in water
2020, Tetrahedron LettersCitation Excerpt :At that point, enolization of the ketone is completes to afford the intermediate D. Subsequently, hydroperoxide radical abstracts a hydrogen radical to the final product 2 with the formation of hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct (Scheme 5). As mentioned in the introduction, there were some methodologies [3–8] reported for the synthesis of 10-alkylphenanthren-9-ols, however, strategy reported here is based on the use of alkyl 1,1′-biaryl-2-ones as a sole starting materials obtained readily by a reaction between [1,1′-biaryl]-2-carbaldehyde and alkylmagnesium chloride followed by oxidation. In addition, this protocol meets a considerable lot of the necessities of green chemistry as: i) the reaction used O2 from air as the oxidant and water as a solvent; ii) it is atom-economical and iii) organic dye is used as a catalyst in the reaction.
A palladium-catalyzed multi-component annulation approach towards the synthesis of phenanthrenes
2019, Organic and Biomolecular ChemistryMicrowave-assisted one-pot synthesis of new phenanthrene fused-tetrahydrodibenzo-acridinones as potential cytotoxic and apoptosis inducing agents
2018, European Journal of Medicinal ChemistryCitation Excerpt :Moreover, tylophorine, antofine and cryptopleurine are some of the representative alkaloids having broad spectrum of activity from this class [16]. Similarly, podophyllotoxin is the natural tetralin lignan mainly present in the plants of Podophyllum emodi and P. peltatum [17]. Efforts made to use podophyllotoxin as clinical drug candidate were unsuccessful due to various side effects such as nausea and damage to normal tissues [18].
