A convenient synthesis of the pyrrolo[3,4-h ]quinazoline ring system is reported. Our synthetic approach consisted of the annelation of a pyrimidine ring to an isoindole moiety using tetrahydroisoindole-4-ones as building blocks. The antiproliferative activity of the new compounds was investigated and one of them showed antitumor activity...

A series of novel 2,5-bis(3′-indolyl)furans and 3,5-bis(3′-indolyl)isoxazoles were synthesized as antitumor agents. The antiproliferative activity was evaluated in vitro toward diverse human tumor cell lines. Initially 5 isoxazoles and 3 furan derivatives were tested against a panel of 10 human tumor cell lines and the most active derivatives...

A series of 2-oxo-[1,4]oxazino[3,2-e ]indoles, heteroanalogues of Angelicin, have been synthesized by a multistep sequence consisting of the annelation of the oxazine ring on the indole moiety. The phototoxicity and the antiproliferative activity of the new derivatives were investigated.

A novel synthetic approach to the synthesis of 3-substituted isoindoles through nucleophilic substitution of 3-halo derivatives by charged carbon, and neutral nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur nucleophiles, assisted by a 1-acyl group, is reported. Aryl-thio-isoindoles, obtained through a direct nucleophilic substitution with sulfur nucleophiles,...

Derivatives of the new ring system pyrrolizino[2,3-b]indol-4(5H)-one were prepared in four steps starting from substituted benzonitriles bearing a functionalized amino group in the adjacent position. The unsubstituted- and the dimethoxy-pyrrolizinoindolones 5a and 5b exhibited modest activity against the HL-60(TB) human leukemia cell line,...

The synthesis of a novel class of tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-g]indazoles is reported, by annelation of the pyrazole ring on the isoindole moiety by means of 5-hydroxymethylene tetrahydroisoindole-4-ones key intermediates, with good regioselectivity. Dihydroderivatives were also obtained by oxidation with DDQ of the corresponding...

We have designed and synthesized isonetropsin and its one pyrrole unit analogue in which the amine and carbonyl groups have been switched in positions 2 and 4, respectively instead of 4 and 2 positions of the natural antibiotic netropsin.

A series of pyrrolo[3',2':4,5]thiopyrano[3,2-b]pyridin-2-ones 4 was prepared in good yields by reacting enaminoketones with cyanomethylene active compounds such as phenylsulfonylacetonitrile, benzoylacetonitrile, and malononitrile. Derivatives of the title ring system were tested by the National Cancer Institute of Bethesda against a panel of...

A series of bis-indolylpyrazoles were obtained by cyclization of diketones using hydrazine monohydrate or methylhydrazine in refluxing acetic acid/THF. Three of the derivs. were selected, by the National Cancer Institute (NCI, Bethesda, USA), to be evaluated against the full panel of about 60 human tumor cell lines derived from nine human...

Derivatives of the new ring systems bispyrido[4',3':4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-a:1',2'-d] pyrazine-6,13-dione and its deaza analogue pyrido[4'',3'':4',5']pyrrolo-[1',2':4,5]pyrazino [1,2-a]indole-6,13-dione were conveniently synthesized through a four-step sequence. Symmetrical derivatives of the former ring system were obtained through self condensation....

Abstract Two new ring systems, isoindolo[1,4]benzoxazinone and isoindolo[1,5]benzoxazepine, were conveniently synthesized through cyclization of suitably substituted isoindole derivatives. Some of the new compounds exhibited antiproliferative activity against a wide range of human tumor cell lines with GI50 mean values at low micromolar level...

A series of derivatives of new ring system pyrido[4',3':4,5]pyrrolo[2,1-d] [1,2,3,5]tetrazine was obtained from moderate to excellent yields by reaction of 2-diazo-3-ethoxycarbonyl-pyrrolo[2,3- c]pyridine with alkyl- or aryl-isocyanates in dichlorometane at room temperature or at 50 °C under microwave irradiation.

A series of 40 derivatives of the [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]indazoles ring system have been prepared with good yields using a versatile and convenient route. Annelation of the [1,2]oxazole ring on the indazole-4-one system was achieved by reaction of the corresponding enaminoketones with hydroxylamine hydrochloride. Derivatives of the title ring...
