Description
Summary:A series of xanthone analogues modified from vadimezan 6 with carboxyl substitution were synthesized as esters, amides, arylidene hydrazides, diacylhydrazides and acyl thiosemicarbazides, and their structures were confirmed by IR, 1 H NMR, MS, HRMS or elemental analysis. The in vitro anticancer activities were evaluated by the MTT method. It was found that compounds 8f , 8g and 10e were effective against A549 with an IC 50 at 10.8 μM, 9.4 μM and 11.5 μM respectively, and that 8e was effective against HL-60 with an IC 50 at 4.6 μM. Compounds 8f-h showed a significant inhibitory effect on HUVEC growth and migration in vitro , among which 8h inhibited HUVEC growth with an IC 50 at 6.4 μM and HUVEC migration by 67.6% and 89.7% at 2.5 μg mL −1 and 10 μg mL −1 respectively. More spectacularly, docking study indicated that compound 8h might target the ATP binding site of VEGFR2. In addition, compounds 8a , 8f-h exhibited moderate in vivo antitumor efficacy against the S180 xenograft in ICR mice by 22.4-29.6% tumor weight inhibition. A series of xanthone analogues modified from vadimezan were synthesized and their anticancer activities were evaluated.
