We report the synthesis of a peptide derivative of antitumor anthraquinones, designed to target GC-rich palindromic sequences. It has micromolar activities on three cancer cell lines and is fifty times less toxic than mitoxantrone on a healthy line.

Flavonoids are well-characterized polyphenolic compounds with pharmacological and therapeutic activities. However, most flavonoids have not been developed into clinical drugs, due to poor bioavailability. Herein, we report a strategy to increase the drugability of flavonoids by constructing C(sp2)-O bonds and stereo- as well as regioselective alkenylation of hydroxyl groups of flavonoids with ethyl-2,3-butadienoate allenes. Twenty-three modified flavonoid derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anti-cancer activities. The results showed that compounds 4b, 4c, 4e, 5e, and 6b exhibited better in vitro inhibitory activity against several cancer cell lines than their precursors. Preliminary structure–activity relationship studies indicated that, in most of the cancer cell lines evaluated, the substitution on position 7 was essential for increasing cytotoxicity. The results of this study might facilitate the preparation or late-stage modification of complex flavonoids as anti-cancer drug candidates.
