Synthesis of NF-kappaB activation inhibitors derived from epoxyquinomicin C.
    Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 2000, May-01, Volume: 10, Issue:9

    In order to develop new inhibitors of NF-kappaB activation, we designed and synthesized dehydroxymethyl derivatives of epoxyquinomicin C, namely, DHM2EQ and its regioisomer DHM3EQ. These derivatives were synthesized from 2,5-dimethoxyaniline in 5 steps. Since DHM2EQ was more active and less toxic than DHM3EQ, its stereochemical configuration was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Each enantiomer of the protected DHM2EQ was separated by a chiral column and deprotected. DHM2EQ inhibited TNF-alpha-induced activation of NF-kappaB in human T cell leukemia cells, and also inhibited collagen-induced arthritis in a rheumatoid model in mice.
