Design,Synthesis and Antitumor Evaluation of 2-Amino-4-phenyl-3-cyano-4H-pyran-ursolic Acid Hybrids
Using ursolic acid as the raw material,2-amino-4-phenyl-3-cyano-4H-pyran-ursolic acid hybrids of 4a,4b,and 4c were synthesized through four steps of reactions:oxidation,condensation,substitution,and cyclization.Their structures were characterized by 1H NMR,13C NMR and HRMS.The antiproliferative activities of compounds 4a to 4c against human non-small cell lung cancer cells(A549)and cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cells(A549/DDP)were evaluated using the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8).Compounds 4a to 4c exhibited superior inhibitory activities against both A549 and A549/DDP cells compared to the positive control drug cisplatin.Among them,compound 4b demonstrated notable in vitro antiproliferative activity[IC50=(0.087±0.003)μmol/L]and selectivity towards A549/DDP cells.
