SYNTHESIS OF QUINOBENZOXAZINE ANALOGUES WITH TOPOISOMERASE II AND QUADRUPLEX INTERACTIONS FOR USE AS ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS

摘要

The present invention discloses a novel quinobenzoxazine self-assembly complex on DNA and on the topoisomerase II-DNA complex. The related model is used to design a new series of quinobenzoxazines, pyridobenzophenoxazines, pyrridonaphthophenoxazines, and other related compounds that may exhibit anticancer or antibiotic activity. The anticancer activity of these compounds is thought to operate via stabilization of the topoisomerase II-DNA complex and/or interaction with G-quadruplexes, while the antibiotic activity of these compounds derives from their ability to inhibit gyrase, the bacterial type II topoisomerase.
