Prodrug-mediated utilization of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1 to obtain the selective release of potent anticancer products within cancer tissues is a promising approach in chemotherapy. We herein report the rationale, preparation, biological evaluation, and mechanism of action of phenyl 4-(2-oxo-3-Alkylimidazolidin-1-yl)benzenesulfonates (PAIB-SOs) that are antimicrotubule prodrugs activated by CYP1A1. Although PAIB-SOs are inert in most cells tested, they are highly cytocidal toward several human breast cancer cells, including hormone-independent and chemoresistant types. PAIB-SOs are N-dealkylated into cytotoxic phenyl 4-(2-oxo-3-imidazolidin-1-yl)benzenesulfonates (PIB-SOs) in CYP1A1-positive cancer cells, both in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, PAIB-SOs are novel chemotherapeutic prodrugs with no equivalent among current antineoplastics and whose selective action toward breast cancer is tailored to the characteristic pattern of CYP1A1 expression observed in a large percentage of human breast tumors.

1-Arylimidazol-2(1H)-ones are shown to be readily lithiated, using 2 mol equiv. of n-butyllithium, on the benzene ring, ortho to the heterocycle. 1-Aryl-4,5-dihydroimidazol-2(1H)-ones also undergo metalation on the aromatic substitutuent ortho to the heterocycle, but less efficiently. 1-Aryl-3-methylimidazol-2(1H)-ones are lithiated on the heterocyclic ring and then on the benzene ring ortho to the heterocycle. No ortho-directing effect was found for 1-aryl-4,5-dihydro-3-methylimidazol-2(1H)-ones.

The Mitsunobu reaction of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-ureas 1 using PPh3 and EtO2CN=NCO2Et led to the mixture of N- and O-alkylation products or a single isomer depending on the substrates.
