Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, and more particularly to a nitrogen-based nitidine sulfonamide derivative and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Cancer, a genetic disease that poses a serious threat to human health, arises from oncogenic factors-induced changes in cellular genes, leading to uncontrolled growth regulation and abnormal proliferation. Current clinically used anticancer drugs generally suffer from bottlenecks such as insufficient target specificity, significant toxic side effects, and the development of drug resistance, which greatly limit treatment efficacy and patient quality of life. In contrast, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) anti-tumor agents exhibit unique advantages with their multi-faceted targets, multi-effect synergistic mechanisms, and low drug resistance potential. Their multi-target nature is particularly critical in the pathological process of reversing tumor resistance.
[0003] Zanthoxylum nitidum, as a traditional medicinal plant, is rich in a variety of active ingredients such as alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids and esters, and has pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-cancer and cardiovascular protection. Among them, Nitidine Chloride (NC), a phenanthridine alkaloid isolated from this plant, has attracted much attention due to its broad-spectrum anti-tumor activity. However, natural nitidine analogues generally have pharmacokinetic defects such as poor water solubility and low oral bioavailability, which seriously restrict their practical application in drug development. Therefore, how to improve the water solubility of such compounds, enhance anti-tumor activity and reduce cytotoxicity through structural modification has become a key scientific issue that needs to be overcome urgently.
[0004] In recent years, the potential of sulfonamide groups in the development of anti-tumor drugs has gradually become prominent. Studies have shown that sulfonamide derivatives improve the water solubility of molecules by introducing polar groups, while exerting multi-target synergistic effects. Their inhibitory activity against human breast cancer, malignant melanoma, liver cancer and renal cancer cells is significantly better than that of sorafenib, and their toxicity to human breast cancer and cervical cancer cells is comparable to that of pentafluorouracil. Based on this, if we can design and synthesize nitrogen-containing nitidine sulfonamide derivatives with high water solubility, high anti-tumor activity and low cytotoxicity by reducing the strategy of reducing fat-soluble groups and introducing polar structures (such as sulfonamide groups) combined with the principle of active fragment splicing, it will not only enrich the molecular diversity of nitidine derivatives and provide candidate molecules for the discovery of new anti-tumor drugs, but also promote the in-depth development and clinical transformation of nitidine resources, which has important scientific significance and application value.

[0158] <Synthetic Comparative Test>
[0159] Experiment 1: In the synthesis of intermediate 1, the catalytic effects of various condensation reagents (BOP, TBTU, HATU, EDCI) were compared. That is, four common condensation reagents, namely, uronium cation condensation agent O-(7-azabenzotriazole-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU), 2-(1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazo-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TBTU), phosphonium cation condensation agent Carter condensation agent (BOP), and carbodiimide condensation agent N1-((ethylimino)methylene)-N3,N3-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine hydrochloride (EDCI), were used to explore the condensation reaction conditions. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0160] Table 3 Condensation results of different condensation reagents
[0161]
[0162]
[0163] Experiments show that combining EDCI with DMAP significantly increases yields to 65% (Table 3). The high water solubility of its byproducts simplifies purification steps. In contrast, other condensation agents yield yields below 50% due to difficulties in separating their byproducts or insufficient reactivity. Therefore, the EDCI / DMAP system is preferred for efficient and scalable amide condensation reactions.
[0164] In Experiment 2, in the synthesis of Intermediate 2, when the ratio of amide intermediate: chloromethyl ether: sodium hydride was 1:1:2, the raw material spots of the amide intermediate could not be completely eliminated, and increasing the amount of sodium hydride to four times still did not result in complete reaction. At a sodium hydride to amide intermediate feed ratio of 1:4, increasing the amount of chloromethyl ether to three times the amount completely eliminated the raw material spots. Furthermore, the reaction time should not be too long; the reaction is complete within 30 minutes. Excessive reaction time or the lack of N2 protection can lead to an increase in byproducts and a decrease in yield. This invention successfully suppresses byproduct formation by optimizing the feed ratio of chloromethyl ether (EOM) to sodium hydride (1:3:4) and reaction conditions (N2 protection, stepwise addition at 0°C), ensuring the high efficiency of amide N-protection. The reaction time is controlled within 30 minutes to avoid impurity accumulation caused by excessive reaction.
[0165] Experiment 3: Intermediate 2 was subjected to cyclization reaction at 100°C using palladium acetate as catalyst, silver carbonate as oxidant, and formylmethyltriphenylphosphine as ligand. The cyclization product 3 was successfully obtained through Heck reaction. The possible reaction mechanism is shown in Figure 1 The protecting group of the cyclization product 3 was removed under acidic conditions. The cyclization product 3 was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane and then added with 1N hydrochloric acid solution. The deprotection reaction was carried out at 80°C to successfully obtain the nitrogen-containing nitidine analog skeleton 4 ( Figure 2 ), and its structure was confirmed by X-ray single crystal diffraction. After successfully obtaining analog skeleton 4, attempts to reduce the lactam ring using a borane-tetrahydrofuran complex at room temperature failed. The synthesized skeleton may be relatively stable, and the mild reaction conditions may have prevented the reagents used from destroying the lactam ring of the analog skeleton, leading to the inability to proceed with the reaction.
[0166] Experiment 4: Using phenylacetyl chloride as the starting material, it reacted with methoxyamine hydrochloride to generate N-methoxyphenylacetamide, and then the amide was cyclized with 2-iodonaphthalene under the catalysis of palladium acetate, but failed to successfully obtain the ring-expanded nitidine skeleton; replacing 2-iodonaphthalene with the highly active 2-naphthaleneboronic acid was also unsuccessful, and increasing the temperature and changing the oxidant did not yield the desired product.
[0167] Experiment 5: Using 2-iodophenylacetic acid as the starting material, the amide intermediate 26 was successfully obtained under the action of a condensing agent. Then, the cyclization was directly carried out at 120°C using palladium acetate as a catalyst, silver acetate as an oxidant, sodium acetate as an additive, and N,N-dimethylacetamide as a solvent. The uncyclized structure 27 and the cyclized structure 28 after the removal of the iodine atom were obtained in the experiment, of which the uncyclized structure 27 was the main product ( Figure 3 ).
[0168] Experiment 6: Using long-chain alkanes as bridge chains and sodium hydride as an activating agent, intermediates 5 and 6 were obtained ( Figure 4), it was found that the long-chain alkane was connected to the O-terminal of the analogue skeleton, which was inconsistent with the results of the N-terminal product reported in the literature and the inventor's previous research. We speculate that its possible reaction mechanism is similar to the reaction pathway proposed by Nguyen et al., and intermediate 29 undergoes bromine atom elimination and intramolecular cyclization to obtain intermediate 30, and then under the attack of bromide anion, a mixture of intermediate 5 connected to the O-terminal and compound 29 connected to the N-terminal is obtained, with intermediate 5 as the main product ( Figure 5 ).
[0169] Experiment 7: Dibromoalkanes of varying lengths (1,2-dibromoethane, 1,3-dibromopropane, 1,4-dibromobutane, and 1,6-dibromohexane) were introduced into analogue skeleton 4. The experiments revealed that carbon chain length affected the yield of the compound to a certain extent, but excessively long carbon chains could generate more byproducts, reducing the yield. Bromoalkanes with carbon chains greater than four (1,4-dibromobutane and 1,6-dibromohexane) produced higher yields, ranging from 69% to 75%, with no significant difference in yield between the two. However, bridging with 1,6-dibromohexane produced more byproducts and was more difficult to purify. Conversely, shorter-chain alkanes, such as 1,2-dibromoethane and 1,3-dibromopropane, produced lower yields, less than 20%, making subsequent reactions difficult.

Resuspend the cells in a suspension and transfer to a culture flask containing 10% DMEM medium. Mix well and culture in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. Observe the cell status after 12 hours.
[0173] (2) Seeding: When the cells grow densely at the bottom of the flask (about 80%), remove the culture medium and wash 1-2 times with PBS buffer. Digest with 1 mL of 0.25% trypsin for 1-2 minutes, add 3 mL of culture medium to terminate the digestion, transfer to a centrifuge tube and centrifuge, discard the supernatant, and add 1 mL of culture medium to make a cell suspension. Pipette 10 μL of cell solution into a cell counting plate and count the cells under a microscope. The cells are seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 4,000 to 15,000 cells per well, with 100 μL of cell solution per well.
[0174] (3) Administration: The target compound and the positive control drug NC were fully dissolved in DMSO and prepared into a sample concentration of 40 μmol / L. Three replicate wells were set up for each concentration, with 100 μL of the sample solution per well. The blank control group was treated with 100 μL of 1% DMEM medium. The cells were cultured for an additional 24 h.
[0175] (4) Detection: Prepare MTS solution (MTS:1% DMEM = 1:5) according to the number of wells. Remove the 96-well plate from the incubator after 24 hours of drug administration and incubation. Discard the old solution and add 120 μL of MTS solution to each well. Incubate at 37°C in the dark for 4 hours. Measure the absorbance at a wavelength of 492 nm.
[0176] (5) The formula for calculating the tumor cell growth inhibition rate is: cell growth inhibition rate = [1-(A1 / A0)] × 100%, where A1 is the absorbance value of the drug-treated group and A0 is the absorbance value of the blank control group.
[0177] After calculation, the inhibition rates of tetracyclic nitrogen-containing nitidine analogs on cells are shown in Table 1:
