diarylmethyl substituted titanocenes promising anti cancer drugs
Polyhedron, 2006Co-Authors: Clara Pampillón, Katja Strohfeldt, Nigel J. Sweeney, Oscar Mendoza, Matthias TackeAbstract:Abstract From the reaction of tert-butyl lithium with p-bromo-N,N-dimethylaniline (1a), p-bromoanisole (1b) or 1-bromo-3,5-dimethoxybenzene (1c), p-N,N-dimethylanilyl lithium (2a), p-anisyl lithium (2b) or (3,5-dimethoxyphenyl) lithium (2c), respectively, were obtained. When reacted with 6-(p-N,N-dimethylanilinyl)fulvene (3a), 6-(p-methoxyphenyl)fulvene (3b) or 3,5-(dimethoxyphenyl)fulvene (3c), the corresponding lithiated intermediates were formed (4a–c). Titanium tetrachloride was added “in situ”, obtaining titanocenes 5a–c, respectively. When these titanocenes were tested against pig Kidney Carcinoma (LLC-PK) cells, inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 3.8 × 10−5 M, 4.5 × 10−5 M, and 7.8 × 10−5 M, respectively, were observed. These values represent improved cytotoxicity against LLC-PK, compared to their ansa-analogues.

novel benzyl substituted titanocene anti cancer drugs
Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, 2005Co-Authors: Nigel J. Sweeney, Katja Strohfeldt, Clara Pampillón, Franzjosef K Rehmann, Helge Mullerbunz, Oscar Mendoza, Matthias TackeAbstract:From the novel reaction of Super Hydride (LiB(Et)3H) with 6-(p-N,N-dimethylanilinyl)fulvene (1a) or 6-(p-methoxyphenyl)fulvene (1b) the corresponding lithium cyclopentadienide intermediates (2a, 2b) were obtained. When reacted with TiCl4, bis-[(p-dimethylaminobenzyl)cyclopentadienyl]titanium (IV) dichloride (3a) and bis-[(p-methoxybenzyl)cyclopentadienyl]titanium (IV) dichloride (3b) were obtained. Titanocene 3a was reacted with an ethereal solution of HCl, by which its dihydrochloride derivative (3c) was formed and isolated. Titanocenes 3b and 3c were characterised by X-ray crystallography. When the titanocenes 3a–c were tested against pig Kidney Carcinoma (LLC-PK) cells inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 1.2 · 10 � 4 M, 2.1 · 10 � 5 M and 9.0 · 10 � 5 M, respectively, were observed. These values represent improved cytotoxicity against LLC-PK, most notably for 3b (Titanocene Y), which is a hundred times more cytotoxic than titanocene dichloride itself. � 2005 Elsevier B.V.

diarylmethyl substituted titanocenes promising anti cancer drugs
Polyhedron, 2006Co-Authors: Clara Pampillón, Katja Strohfeldt, Nigel J. Sweeney, Oscar Mendoza, Matthias TackeAbstract:Abstract From the reaction of tert-butyl lithium with p-bromo-N,N-dimethylaniline (1a), p-bromoanisole (1b) or 1-bromo-3,5-dimethoxybenzene (1c), p-N,N-dimethylanilyl lithium (2a), p-anisyl lithium (2b) or (3,5-dimethoxyphenyl) lithium (2c), respectively, were obtained. When reacted with 6-(p-N,N-dimethylanilinyl)fulvene (3a), 6-(p-methoxyphenyl)fulvene (3b) or 3,5-(dimethoxyphenyl)fulvene (3c), the corresponding lithiated intermediates were formed (4a–c). Titanium tetrachloride was added “in situ”, obtaining titanocenes 5a–c, respectively. When these titanocenes were tested against pig Kidney Carcinoma (LLC-PK) cells, inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 3.8 × 10−5 M, 4.5 × 10−5 M, and 7.8 × 10−5 M, respectively, were observed.
