    Abstract Tridentate ligand-coordinated ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes with large N-Ru-N bite angles have been shown to promote ligand field splitting and reduce singlet-triplet state mixing leading to dramatically extended emission quantum yields and lifetimes under ambient conditions. These effects are anticipated to enhance their photoinduced singlet oxygen production, promoting prospects for such complexes as type II phototherapeutics. In this contribution, we examined this putative effect for [Ru(bqp)(bqpCOOEt)]

    Abstract A series of novel 1,4-diaryl-2-azetidinone analogues of combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) have been designed, synthesised and evaluated in vitro for antiproliferative activity, antiapoptotic activity and inhibition of tubulin polymerisation. Glucuronidation of CA-4 by uridine 5-diphosphoglucuronosyl transferase enzymes (UGTs) has been identified as a mechanism of resistance in cancer cells. Potential sites of ring B glucuronate conjugation are removed by replacing the B ring meta-hydroxy substituent of selected series of β-lactams with alternative substituents e.g. F, Cl, Br, I, CH

    Abstract Microtubules are a validated clinical target for the treatment of many cancers. We describe the design, synthesis, biochemical evaluation, and molecular modelling studies of a series of analogues of the microtubule-destabilising agent, combretastatin A-4 (CA-4). Our series of 33 novel compounds contain the CA-4 core structure with modifications to the stilbene linking group, and are predominantly piperazine derivatives. Synthesis was achieved in a two-step process by firstly obtaining the acrylic acid via a Perkin reaction using microwave enhanced synthesis, followed by coupling using either DCC or Mukaiyama's reagent. All target compounds were screened for antiproliferative activity in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Hydroxyl derivative (E)-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl) propenone (4m) displayed potent antiproliferative activity (IC50 = 190 nM). Two amino-containing derivatives, (E)-3-(3-amino-4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (4q) and (E)-3-(3-amino-4-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-(p-tolyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (4x), were the most potent with IC50 values of 130 nM and 83 nM respectively. Representative compounds were shown to depolymerise tubulin, induce G2/M arrest and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells but not peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and induce cleavage of the DNA repair enzyme poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) in MCF-7 cells. Modelling studies predict that the compounds bind to tubulin within the colchicine-binding site. These compounds are a valuable addition to the library of CA-4 analogues and 4m, 4q and 4x will be developed further as novel, water-soluble molecules targeting microtubules.
