Facile and efficient access to Androsten-17-(1',3',4')-pyrazoles and Androst-17β-(1',3',4')-pyrazoles via Vilsmeier reagents, and their antiproliferative activity evaluation in vitro.
European journal of medicinal chemistry, 2017Co-Authors: Haibo Huo, Jiwen Zhang, Rui Guo, Biao Liu, Wenjia Dan, Xin-min Xiao, Baojun ShiAbstract:Abstract In this work, twenty-seven novel steroidal pyrazole derivatives were designed and effectively synthesized with two different commercially available staring material, Isopregnanolone 1 and 5,16-Pregnadienolone 7, via the key intermediates, 17β-(4′-formyl)pyrazolylandrost-3β-yl formate and 17-(4′-formyl)pyrazolylandrost- 5,16-dienes-3β-yl formate, which were obtained from the cyclization of steroidal phenylhydrazone with Vilsmeier reagent catalyzed by phosphorous oxychloride followed by hydrolysis, then Borch Reduction to afford the target derivatives under mild conditions. Structures of these compounds were identified by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and high resolution mass spectrometry. Based on our previous work, the cytotoxicity of these derivatives were evaluated by the SRB method against 293T cell lines and three cancer cell lines: A549, Hela and MCF-7. The results indicated that compounds 5b-d, and 11a-e exhibited moderate to high cytotoxic activities with IC50 values ranging from 0.62 to 7.51 μM. Among the eight hybrids, compound 11b, with an ethyl amino and a dien-pregn moieties showed the highest potency, with an IC50 values of 0.87 μM and 0.53 μM for 293T cell lines and Hela cell lines, respectively. Some structure-activity relationships among the groups of the twenty-seven derivatives are discussed and identify several determinants important for the activity of these compounds. What's more, further molecular mechanism studies suggested that 11b one of the most potent derivatives caused Hela cell lines apoptosis and arrested the cell cycle at S phase in a concentration dependent manner.

Design, synthesis and cytotoxic activity of a novel series of steroidal phenylpyrazoles.
Steroids, 2015Co-Authors: Ximei Zhao, Zhi-peng Yuan, Fangfang Tan, Baojun Shi, Jiwen ZhangAbstract:Thirty novel steroidal pyrazole derivatives were designed and synthesized via a highly efficient route from pregnenolone (1) as starting material. The key intermediates 3a-c were obtained under Vilsmeier conditions, and the subsequent hydrolysis, acetylation or Borch Reduction afforded thirty target compounds. These compounds were mainly characterized by (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, DEPT135°. The structure of compound 3a was also confirmed by X-ray single crystal diffraction. The cytotoxicity of these compounds was evaluated by the SRB method against four cancer cell lines, including A549, Hela, MCF-7 and HepG2, and the results indicated that compounds 5a, 6a, 7a and 8a exhibited significant cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 0.91 to 5.44 μM. Most importantly, compound 5a exhibited excellent cytotoxicity against A549 with an IC50 value of 0.91 μM. On the basis of our research the structure-activity relationships (SAR) of these compounds were discussed. This work provides some important hints for further structural modification of steroids towards developing novel and highly effective anticancer drugs.
