Popis: | Sulfur-containing compounds, such as cyclic compounds with a vinyl sulfane structure, exhibit a wide range of biological activities including anticancer activity. Therefore, the development of efficient strategies to synthesize such compounds is a remarkable achievement. We have developed a unique approach for the rapid and modular preparation of nature-inspired cyclic and acyclic sulfur-containing compounds using thioacrolein, a naturally occurring chemically unstable intermediate. We constructed thiopyranone derivatives through the regioselective sequential double Diels-Alder reaction of thioacrolein produced by allicin, a major component in garlic, and two molecules of silyl enol ether as the diene partner. The cytotoxicity toward cancer stem cells of the thiopyranones was equal to or higher than that of (Z)-ajoene (positive control) derived from garlic, and the thiopyranones had higher chemical stability than (Z)-ajoene. |
