The objective of this study was to develop a practical green procedure to synthesize quinoxalines and bis-quinoxalines and evaluate their inhibitory effects on the viability of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells.
A series of quinoxaline and bis-quinoxaline derivatives have been designed and synthesized following a microwave-assisted and bismuth nitrate-catalyzed eco-friendly route. A detailed comparison has been made between microwave-induced protocol with the reactions occurred at room temperature. The structure of the compounds have been elucidated by various spectroscopic methods and finally confirmed by x-ray crystallographic analyses.
Two quinoxaline derivatives, compounds 6 and 12 have demonstrated inhibitory effects on the viability of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells when compared with HaCaT nontumorigenic human keratinocyte cells.
Notably, compound 6 inhibits Stat3 phosphorylation/activation in A431 skin cancer cells.
本研究旨在开发一种实用的绿色方法来合成喹喔啉和双喹喔啉,并评估它们对 A431 人表皮癌细胞活力的抑制作用。
采用微波辅助和硝酸铋催化的环保路线,设计并合成了一系列喹喔啉和双喹喔啉衍生物。详细比较了微波诱导法与室温下反应的差异。通过各种光谱方法阐明了化合物的结构,并最终通过 X 射线晶体学分析得到了证实。
与非肿瘤性人类角质形成细胞 HaCaT 相比,两种喹喔啉衍生物(化合物 6 和 12)对 A431 人表皮癌细胞的活力具有抑制作用。
值得注意的是,化合物 6 可抑制 A431 皮肤癌细胞中 Stat3 的磷酸化/激活。
