Research Abstract |
With the aim of developing a novel type of anticancer alkylating agents, e.g. oligonucleotides bearing two intercalator groups (1), Synthetic routes of ellipticine (2), 9-hydroxyellipticine (3), and 11-fluoromethyl-9-hyaroxy-5-methy1-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazole (4) was investigated in the following manners. 1) Ellipticine (2) was synthesized starting from 3-ethyl-4-methylpyridine. 9-Hydroxyellipticine (3) was also attempted to synthesize in a similar manner, however, there are several steps to compete the total synthesis of 3. 2) In the case of total synthesis of 4, the key compound, pyrido[4,3-b]-carbazole dervative (6), was obtained in six steps starting from 5- methoxyindole. 3) Another approach to synthesize 4 employing the ring transformation of isoxazoline N-oxide to 3H--indole was investigated. In the course of this project, we found several new ring transformations of isoxazoline Nーoxide. 4) The sugar moiety (5) was prepared and the synthesis of oligoncleotides by the condensation of these intercalators with 5 will be investigated.
