A large number of indolyl-4-azaindolyl thiazoles, nortopsentin analogues, were conveniently synthesized. The antiproliferative activity of the new derivatives was examined against four human tumor cell lines with different histologic origin. Seven derivatives consistently reduced the growth of the experimental models independently of TP53 gene status and exhibited the highest activity against the malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (STO) cell line. The most active compound of this series acts as a CDK1 inhibitor, and was found to cause cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase, to induce apoptosis by preventing the phosphorylation of survivin in Thr34 and to increase the cytotoxic activity of paclitaxel in STO cells.
Site-selective azaindole arylation at the azine and azole rings via N-oxide activation

Subjection of N-methyl 6-and 7-azaindole N-oxides to a Pd(OAc) 2/DavePhos catalyst system enables regioselective direct arylation of the azine ring. Following deoxygenation, 7-azaindole substrates undergo an additional regioselective azole direct arylation event in good yield.

Based on the indoloquinoline alkaloids cryptolepine (1), neocryptolepine (2), isocryptolepine (3) and isoneocryptolepine (4), used as lead compounds for new antimalarial agents, a series of tricyclic and bicyclic analogues, including carbolines, azaindoles, pyrroloquinolines and pyrroloisoquinolines was synthesized and biologically evaluated. None of the bicyclic compounds was significantly active against the chloroquine-resistant strain Plasmodium falciparum K1, in contrast to the tricyclic derivatives. The tricyclic compound 2-methyl-2H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole (9), or 2-methyl-β-carboline, showed the best in vitro activity, with an IC50 value of 0.45 μM against P. falciparum K1, without apparent cytotoxicity against L6 cells (SI > 1000). However, this compound was not active in the Plasmodium berghei mouse model. Structure-activity relationships are discussed and compared with related naturally occurring compounds.
