Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, we have synthesized a series of new β-carboline derivatives, and evaluated their antitumor activity against HeLa S-3 cells to clarify its action mechanism and to provide its safety for a biological body using tumor-bearing mice. This compound acted as a tubulin polymerization inhibitor stronger than nocodazole, and suppressed the growth of the tumor of the mice. Glycosides and polyethylene glycol esters of many kinds of both β-carboline and ellipticine derivatives were also synthesized to evaluate their hydrophilicity and lipophilicity in connection with antitumor activity. Second, we advocated a new concept of the fluorous-solid phase (FSP) synthesis, using a macroreticular fluorous polystyrene resin, as a sustainable organic synthesis. This new methodology provides both high reactivity as an advantage of a liquid-phase reaction and easy separation of the product as that of a solid-phase reaction. Finally, we applied it to the synthesis of β-carboline derivatives.
