Title: Chemoenzymatic synthesis with lipase catalyzed resolution and evaluation of antitumor activity of (R/S)-2-[2-hydroxy-3-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl]-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]quinolin-3(2H)-one. Author: Nagarapu L, Gaikwad HK, Bantu R, Manikonda SR. Journal: Eur J Med Chem; 2011 Jun; 46(6):2152-6. PubMed ID: 21440337. Abstract: Synthesis, characterization, resolution and evaluation of novel (R/S)-2-[2-hydroxy-3-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl]-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]quinolin-3(2H)-one derivatives are described. Enantiomerically pure compounds were isolated in good to excellent yield with high enantiomeric excess under mild reaction conditions by using Candida antarctica B (CAL-B) and Candida rugosa (CRL) Lipases. Newly synthesized and resolved compounds were screened for their antitumor activity against cancer cells such as human neuroblastoma SK-N-SH and human lung carcinoma A549 cell line in vitro. The results have shown that the compound 1 S-(-) alcohol was more effective in inhibiting the tumor cell growth.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
