Outline of Final Research Achievements |
LL-Z1640-2 (1) is a member of 14-membered macrolide containing cis-enone moiety . This is known as a potent and selective TAK-1 (TGF-b activated kinase 1) inhibitor. Recently, we revealed that 1 exhibited a marked tumor reduction effect for multiple myeloma(MM)-bearing mice. Moreover the osteolytic bone destruction which is caused in MM was also suppressed by the administration of LL-Z1640-2. Although LL-Z1640-2 can be considered as a promising seed molecule of antitumor drug, the supplement of it is not stable for the further animal experiments. To facilitate the development of anti-MM agent, the establishment of the novel synthetic route of LL-Z1640-2 was conducted. This synthesis involved a ring-closing metathesis under low temperature as a key reaction and last stage isomerization from cis-enone to trans-enone. As a result, four derivatives including LL-Z1640-2 were obtained throughout this total synthesis and we also discovered some derivatives which have potent anti-MM agents.
