Cyano Group Removal from Cyano-Promoted Aza-Diels-Alder Adducts: Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship of Phenanthroindolizidines and Phenanthroquinolizidines.
    Organic letters, 2016, Feb-19, Volume: 18, Issue:4

    Phenanthroindolizidines and phenanthroquinolizidines were concisely synthesized by the reductive decyanization of cyano-promoted intramolecular aza-Diels-Alder cycloadducts followed by aryl-aryl coupling. Cyano groups were removed from α-aminoacrylonitriles via treatment with sodium borohydride in 2-propanol in almost quantitative yields; a possible mechanism was proposed and examined using D-labeling experiments. A systematic study of the effects of the phenanthrene substitution pattern on the anticancer activity against three human cancer cell lines was discussed.
