RESUMO
A large series of 2-arylchromen-4-ones containing from 1 to 3 fluorine atoms or a trifluoromethyl group in the structure was synthesized by condensation of fluorinated 2-hydroxyacetophenones with benzaldehydes in an alkaline medium and subsequent oxidative cyclization of the resulting 2'-hydroxychalcones by action of I2 in DMSO. The cytotoxicity of the obtained compounds was studied in glioblastoma cell line, SNB19, and in a monkey-derived normal kidney epithelium cell line, Vero. In addition, antiglycation activity of the obtained compounds was evaluated. The inhibitory activity of some fluorinated 2-arylchromen-4-ones against acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase and carboxylesterase as well their primary antioxidant activity in ABTS and FRAP tests were investigated. Screening of the synthesized compounds for their inhibitory activity against influenza A virus A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) in the MDCK cell culture revealed that fluorinated compounds 32, 31 and 39 showed manifest antiviral effects (with IS = 57, 38 and 25 correspondingly) that makes this series of new biologically attractive fluorinated heterocycles promising for further development and in-depth study.
RESUMO
A number of new biologically interesting fluorinated 2-arylchroman-4-ones and their 3-arylidene derivatives were synthesized based on the p-toluenesulfonic acid-catalyzed one-pot reaction of 2-hydroxyacetophenones with benzaldehydes. It was found that obtained (E)-3-arylidene-2-aryl-chroman-4-ones reacted with malononitrile under base conditions to form 4,5-diaryl-4H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromenes. The structures of the synthesized fluorinated compounds were confirmed by 1H, 19F, and 13C NMR spectral data, and for some representatives of heterocycles also using NOESY spectra and X-ray diffraction analysis. A large series of obtained flavanone derivatives as well as products of their modification (35 examples) containing from 1 to 12 fluorine atoms in the structure was tested in vitro for cytotoxicity in MDCK cell line and for antiviral activity against influenza A virus. Among the studied heterocycles 6,8-difluoro-2-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)chroman-4-one (IC50 = 6 µM, SI = 150) exhibited the greatest activity against influenza A/Puerto Rico/8/34 (H1N1) virus. Moreover, this compound appeared active against phylogenetically distinct influenza viruses, A(H5N2) and influenza B (SI's of 53 and 42, correspondingly). The data obtained suggest that the fluorinated derivatives of 2-arylchroman-4-ones are prospective scaffolds for further development of potent anti-influenza antivirals.
RESUMO
Fluorinated derivatives of 1,4-naphthoquinones are highly potent inhibitors of Cdc25A and Cdc25B phosphatases and growth of tumor cells. Eight new derivatives of polyfluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone were synthesized and their cytotoxicity in human myeloma, human mammary adenocarcinoma, mouse fibroblasts and primary mouse fibroblast cells as well as their mutagenic and antioxidant properties in a Salmonella tester strain were studied. The efficiency of suppressing the growth of two lines of tumor cells decreased in the order: 2-(2-hydroxy-ethylamino)-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (1), 2,3-dimethoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (2), 2-[2-hydroxyethyl(methyl)amino]-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (3), 2-morpholino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (4), 2-[bis-(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (5), 2-[(2-hydroxy)ethylsulfanyl)]-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (6), 2-methoxy-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (7), and 1,4-dioxo-3-(1-pyridinio)-1,4-dihydro-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoronaphthalene-2-olate (8). Taking into account these data together with the better cytotoxic effect against cancer cells as compared with normal mammalian cells, protecting of bacterial cells from spontaneous and H(2)O(2)-dependent mutagenesis, and lower general toxicity of the compounds towards different cells, one can propose that compounds 3-5 may be considered as useful potential inhibitors of growth of tumor cells.

Fluorinated derivatives of 1,4-naphthoquinone are highly potent inhibitors of Cdc25A and Cdc25 phosphatases and growth of tumor cells. Five new N-substituted polyfluorinated derivatives of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone were synthesized and their mutagenic and antioxidant properties in Salmonella cells, as well as cytotoxicity in human myeloma (RPMI 8226), human mammary adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), mouse fibroblasts (LMTK) and primary mouse fibroblast cells (PMF) were studied. 2-tert-Butylamino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (1) inhibited the growth of normal control and tumor cells at the same concentration. Three compounds: 2-diethylamino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (2), 2-ethylamino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (3), 2-phenylamino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (4) exhibited a 50% decrease in the growth of cancer cells at low and comparable concentrations (2.4-8.6 microM) while being remarkably less cytotoxic toward normal LMTK and PMF cells. Quinones (1)-(4), but not 2-phenylamino-3-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (5), efficiently suppressed spontaneous mutagenesis in Salmonella cells, while all compounds 1-5 decreased the mutagenic effect of H2O2 on bacterial cells. Their possible perspectives as anticancer drugs are shortly discussed.

Four new n-butylamino and two sulfur-containing derivatives of polyfluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone were synthesized and their mutagenic and antioxidant properties in Salmonella cells, as well as the cytotoxicity in human myeloma (RPMI 8226), human mammary adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), mouse fibroblasts (LMTK) and primary mouse fibroblast cells (PMF) were studied. 2-n-Butylamino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (1) showed efficient inhibition of the growth of the tumor cells. 2,8-Di-(n-butyl-amino)-3,5,6,7-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (2) had significantly less growth-inhibiting properties, while 2,6-di-(n-butylamino)-3,5,7,8-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (3) and 2,6,8-tri-(n-butylamino)-3,5,7-tetrafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (4), demonstrated very low cytotoxicity. Compounds 1 and 2 were remarkably less cytotoxic while compound 3 and 4 were not cytotoxic toward LMTK and PMF cells as compared with tumor human cell lines. Cytotoxicity of 2-(2'-methylthioethyl)amino-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone (5) and (2,2'-dithiodi-2)-3,5,6,7,8-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone-2-ylamino)ethan (6) toward mammalian cells was compared with that for compounds 1 and 2.
