Andrographolide 1, the cytotoxic agent of the plant Andrographis paniculata was subjected to semi-synthetic studies leading to the preparation of a number of potent and novel analogues. Of the analogues synthesized, while 8,17-epoxy andrographolide 6 retained the cytotoxic activity of 1, ester derivatives of 6 exhibited considerable improvement in activity. Lower activity was observed when the epoxy moiety in the triacetate 9, derived from 6 was modified. Synthesis and structure-activity relationships are discussed.
穿心莲内酯1是植物穿心莲的细胞毒性剂,对其进行了半合成研究,从而制备了许多强效且新颖的类似物。在合成的类似物中,虽然8,17-环氧穿心莲内酯6保留了1的细胞毒性活性,但6的酯衍生物在活性方面有显著提高。当对由6衍生的三乙酸酯9中的环氧部分进行修饰时,观察到活性较低。本文讨论了合成方法及构效关系。
