A series of novel penta-1,4-diene-3-one derivatives containing quinazoline and oxime ether moieties were designed and synthesized. Their anticancer activities were evaluated by MTT assay, the results showed that most compounds exhibited extremely inhibitory effects against hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells. In particular, compounds Q2 and Q8 displayed the more potent inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 0.64 and 0.63 μM, which were better than that of gemcitabine (1.40 μM). Further mechanism studies indicated that compounds Q2, Q8, Q13 and Q19 could control the migration of SMMC-7721 cells effectively, and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells by inhibiting the DNA replication. Western-blot results showed that compounds Q2 and Q8 induced irreversible apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells by regulating the expression level of apoptose-related proteins. Those studies demonstrated that the penta-1,4-diene-3-one derivatives containing quinazoline and oxime ether fragments merited further research as potential anticancer agents.

Substituted 4-chloroquinazoline reacted with sodium diselenide to give novel sodium quinazoline-4-diselenide compounds. The reaction provides an efficient and facile approach to the synthesis of sodium quinazoline-4-diselenide compounds. Structures of title compounds were confirmed by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis. MTT assay was adopted to show anticancer activities of the compounds. Compounds 5a and 5h showed good activities against cancer-cell lines MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-231, A549, SiHa, and HeLa. In addition, 5a exhibited quite good anticancer effects on relative above cell lines with 10μM concentration compared with oxaliplatin and gefitinib of the commercial anticancer drugs.

Aurora Kinase B is a serine-threonine kinase known to be overexpressed in several cancers, with no inhibitors approved for clinical use. Herein, we present the discovery and optimization of a series of novel quinazoline-based Aurora Kinase B inhibitors. The lead inhibitor SP-96 shows sub-nanomolar potency in Aurora B enzymatic assays (IC50 = 0.316 ± 0.031 nM). We identified the important pharmacophore features resulting in selectivity against receptor tyrosine kinases. Particularly, SP-96 shows >2000 fold selectivity against FLT3 and KIT which is important for normal hematopoiesis. This could diminish the adverse effect of neutropenia reported in the clinical trials of the Aurora B inhibitor Barasertib, which inhibits FLT3 and KIT in addition to Aurora B. Enzyme kinetics of SP-96 shows non-ATP-competitive inhibition which makes it a first-in-class inhibitor. Further, SP-96 shows selective growth inhibition in NCI60 screening, including inhibition of MDA-MD-468, a Triple Negative Breast Cancer cell line.
