Synthesis of Barringtogenol C Derivatives and Their Cytotoxic Activities

Abstract

Aseries of barringtogenol C 1 derivatives 2a-c, 3a-c, 4a-c, 5a-d, 6a,b and 7 were synthesized and screened in cytotoxicity assay against various cancer cell lines HeLa, A549, U87MG, CaCo-2 and MCF-7 together with the normal cell line Vero. Many of the compounds screened have been found to have significantly improved anti-cancer potency in comparison with doxorubicin or barringtogenol C 1 . Compound 3a was found to be 26-fold more active than doxorubicin. It was also not toxic to the non-tumoral Vero cells tested under in vitro conditions. In conclusion, compound 3a tested strong cytotoxicity against cancer cells, which could be a promising anti-cancer lead compound for further studies.
