Marine natural product neolamellarins are a collection of lamellarin-like phenolic pyrrole compounds, which can inhibit hypoxia-induced HIF-1 activation. Many pyrrole-derived lamellarin-like alkaloids show potent MDR reversing activity. In this study, five permethylated derivatives of neolamellarin A were synthesized with their MDR reversing activity studied in order to identify new MDR reversal agents. A convergent strategy was adopted to synthesize the permethylated derivatives of neolamellarin A. Pyrrole was first converted into a corresponding N-trisisopropylsilyl(TIPS)-substituted derivative, then through iodination afforded 3,4-diiodinated pyrrole compound. The key intermediate, 3,4-disubstituent-1H-pyrrole, was obtained through desilylation of 3,4-disubstituent-1-TIPS pyrrole, which was prepared from 3,4-diiodinated pyrrole derivative and aryl boronic acid ester through Suzuki cross-coupling reaction between them. Then, the intermediate, 3,4-disubstituent-1H-pyrrole, reacted with fresh phenylacetyl chloride under n-Bu Li/THF condition afforded the target compounds. Finally, we obtained five novel pyrrolic compounds, permethylated derivatives of neolamellarin A 16a-e, in 30%–37% yield through five step reactions. The bioactivity testing of these compounds are in process.展开更多

Due to the special living environment, the alkaloids from marine sponges have exhibited different biological activities and promising medical application potential. Neolamellarin A is a marine alkaloid possessing bisaryl-pyrrole structural features. Here, the synthesis of 12 different 3,4-bisaryl-N-alkylated permethylated analogues of neolamellarin A and their outstanding neuroprotective activity in PC12 cells are presented and discussed.展开更多
