The sesquiterpene lactone framework of artemisinin was used as a drug repositioning prototype for the development of novel antitumor drugs. Several series of novel artemisinin analogues (artemalogues) were designed and synthesized through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of artemisitene with nitrile oxides or nitrones. The isoxazolidine-containing spirobicyclic artemalogue 11b turns out to be the most potent with low micromolar IC₅₀ values against all three tumor cells, which were at least 4- to 14-fold more potent than the parent artemisinin.
青蒿素的倍半萜内酯骨架被用作开发新型抗肿瘤药物的药物重定位原型。通过青蒿烯与腈氧化物或硝酮的1,3-偶极环加成反应,设计并合成了几个系列的新型青蒿素类似物(青蒿类似物)。含异恶唑烷的螺双环青蒿类似物11b被证明是最有效的,对所有三种肿瘤细胞的IC₅₀值为低微摩尔浓度,其效力比母体青蒿素至少高4至14倍。
