Abstract

:
A simple and efficient seven steps synthesis of brodifacoum and difethialone from phenylacetyl chloride is described. The key synthetic strategies involve Friedel-Crafts acylation, intramolecular ring cyclization and condensation reaction in the presence of Brønsted-Lowry acids. It was found that brodifacoum showed favorable inhibiting activities on LPS-stimulated nitrite production in BV-2 microglia cells. Brodifacoum exhibited superior anti-inflammatory effects than difethialone. We expect that an efficient linear synthesis of 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives and key fragments that are useful agents for the modulation of inflammation as well as inhibition of coagulation will be of practical use.

1. Introduction

4-Hydroxycoumarin-based anticoagulants such as the first generation anticoagulant warfarin and its related second generation anticoagulants such as brodifacoum, bromadiolone, chlorophacinone, difenacoum, coumatetralyl, flocoumafen, and difethialone are effective anticoagulant rodenticides. The anticoagulant rodenticides difenacoum and brodifacoum showed a plasma elimination half-life of 91.7 days. In general, the elimination half-lives in plasma for first-generation rodenticides were shorter than those for second-generation rodenticides. These results revealed that the superwarfarins such as difenacoum, brodifacoum, flocoumafen, and difethialone showed higher anticoagulant effect than that of warfarin [1].
Recently, a number of comparative pharmacological investigations of 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives have shown good anticoagulant activity with low side effects and little toxicity (Figure 1). In addition, they have evoked a great deal of interest due to their biological properties and characteristic conjugated molecular architecture. Many of them possess important pharmacological efficacies including analgesic [2], anti-arthritis [3], anti-inflammatory [4], anti-pyretic [5], anti-bacterial [6], anti-viral [7], and anti-cancer [8] effects.

4-Hydroxycoumarin and its derivatives have been effectively used as anticoagulants for the treatment of disorders in which there is excessive or undesirable clotting, such as thrombophlebitis [9], pulmonary embolisms [10], and certain cardiac conditions [11]. The Dimitra group [12] reported that several coumarin derivatives showed inhibition of lipid peroxidation and scavenge of reactive oxygen radicals (ROS) in vivo related with potent inhibition of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1). The Stasi group [13] described how 4-hydroxycoumarin and its derivatives showed good anti-inflammatory activity, including inhibition of lipid peroxidation and scavenge of superoxide radicals in intestinal track.
The skeletons of 2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones 5–6 and 3-(p-bromobiphenyl-4-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-ol (4) are essential structural features for brodifacoum (2) and difethialone (3) (Scheme 1). In general, 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives have traditionally been coupled using Brønsted-Lowry acids such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. Our synthetic approach was focused to construction of C3-C1′ and C9′-C1′ formation through a condensation reaction in the presence of AcOH/H2SO4 and intramolecular ring cyclization reaction. In addition, to establish C3′-C1′′ bond formation the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction performed in good yield using phenylacetyl chloride (7) with 4-bromobiphenyl (8) in the presence of aluminum chloride. In a continuation of our medicinal research program dealing with the synthesis of biologically active 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives, we would like to report a simple synthesis of brodifacoum {3-[3-[4-(4-bromophenyl)phenyl]-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-yl]-2-hydroxychromen-4-one} and difethialone {3-[3-[4-(4-bromophenyl)-phenyl]-1-tetralinyl]-2-hydroxy-4-thiochromenone} through acylation, intramolecular ring cyclization, and coupling reactions. They were then evaluated for suppression of LPS-induced NO generation as markers of anti-inflammation in cultured cells. The results suggest that they could be possible lead molecules for anti-inflammatory agents.

2. Results and Discussion

2.1. Chemistry

To generate the key intermediate 3-(p-bromobiphenyl-4-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-one (13) from 1-(p-bromobiphenyl-4-yl)-2-phenylethanone (9) the ketone 7 was prepared from 2-phenylacetyl chloride and 4-bromobiphenyl (8) under Friedel-Crafts conditions [14] (Scheme 2).

Compound 7 underwent a Reformatsky reaction with ethyl bromoacetate in the presence of zinc and iodine to give the tertiary alcohol 10 [16], which was dehydroxylated by using triethylsilane (TES), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), and boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (BTDE) in dichloromethane to afford ester 11, which was then subsequently treated with potassium hydroxide in ethanol to give acid 12 in 41% (two steps) yield. Interestingly, acid hydrolysis of ester 11 using 6 N HCl with acetic acid in ethanol afforded to acid 12 with low yield due to the generation of decompositon products.
Acid 12 underwent intramolecular ring cyclization using polyphosphoric acid (PPA) at 130 °C–140 °C to generate tetralone 13 in 52% yield. Reduction was accomplished with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in ethanol to give secondary alcohol 4 in 77% yield. Finally, the secondary alcohol 4 was coupled with 4-hydroxycoumarin or 4-hydroxythiocoumarin in the presence of acetic acid and sulfuric acid at 80 °C to yield brodifacoum and difethialone in 42% and 40% yields, respectively.

2.2. Biology

Nitrite was used as a measure of NO production. The suppression of LPS-induced NO generation by the prepared 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives in cultured cells was evaluated by the published test method [15] and the results are summarized in Figure 2. Brodifacoum (2, BCF) one of the 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives, inhibited nitrite accumulation in LPS-stimulated microglia BV-2 cells, while difethialone (3, DCF) showed no activity on inhibition of NO production at 1–10 µg/mL concentrations in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells (Figure 2). These results also showed that brodifacoum possessed good anti-inflammatory activity. Neither brodifacoum nor difethialone alone showed cytotoxicity or affect NO generation in BV2 cells with the concentration of 10 µg /mL [16].

All values represent mean ± S.E. of three independent experiments performed in triplicate. # p < 0.05 indicates significant difference compare with sham group. * p < 0.05 indicates significant difference compare with LPS group.

When necessary, chemicals were purified according to the reported procedures [17].

3.2. BV-2 Microglia Culture

The murine BV-2 microglia cell line was maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS and penicillin/streptomycin at 37 °C in a humidified incubator under 5% CO2. For all experiments, cells were plated at a density of 1 × 105 cells/mL in 24-well plates.

3.3. Nitric Oxide Assay

When the cells were activated by the exposure of LPS, generated NO was accumulated in the form of nitrite in the cultured medium. The Griess reaction was used to perform nitrite assays. Cells were incubated with LPS (lipopolysaccharide, 100 ng/mL) and various concentrations of modafinil derivatives for 24 h at 37 °C. The culture media was then mixed with an equal volume of reagent (1 part 0.1% N-1-naphthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride, 1 part 1% sulfanilamide in 5% phosphoric acid) in 96-well plates. The absorbance was determined at 540 nm as level of nitrite accumulation using a microplate reader. Data are reported as the mean ± the standard deviation of three observations.

4. Conclusions

In conclusion, we have demonstrated a simple and practical synthetic route to brodifacoum and difethialone using readily available inexpensive reagents and simple reaction conditions that do not require any special equipment or techniques. We expect that this method would be useful for the practical preparation of brodifacoum and difethialone and modification of its derivatives. We determined their biological activities in cultured cells and found that brodifacoum showed favorable inhibitory activities on LPS-stimulated nitrite production in BV-2 microglia cells, and that the anti-inflammatory activity of brodifacoum was better than that of difethialone. These results suggest that brodifacoum could be a useful lead molecule for the development of anti-inflammatory agents.
