Microtubule targeting agents (MTAs) are among the most successful chemotherapeutic drugs, but their efficacy is often limited by the development of multidrug resistance (MDR). Therefore, the development of novel MTAs with the ability to overcome MDR is urgently needed. In this contribution, through modification of the unsymmetric biaryl compounds, we discovered a novel compound dxy-1-175 with potent anti-proliferative activity against cancer cells. Mechanistic study revealed that dxy-1-175 inhibited tubulin polymerization by interacting with the colchicine-binding site of tubulin, which caused cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase. Based on the predicted binding model of dxy-1-175 with tubulin, a series of new 4-benzoylbiphenyl analogues were designed and synthesized. Among them, the hydrochloride compound 12e with improved solubility and good stability in human liver microsome, exhibited the most potent anti-proliferative activity with IC50 value in the low nanomolar range, and markedly inhibited the growth of breast cancer 4T1 xenograft in vivo. Notably, 12e effectively overcame P-gp-mediated MDR and our preliminary data suggested that 12e may not be a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Taken together, our study reveals a novel MTA 12e targeting the colchicine-binding site with potent anticancer activity and the ability to circumvent MDR.

We report a new strategy for the conversion of carboxylic acids into potent acid triflate electrophiles. The reaction involves oxidative carbonylation of carboxylic acids with I2 in the presence of AgOTf, and is postulated to proceed via acyl hypoiodites that react with CO to form acid triflates. Coupling this chemistry with subsequent trapping with arenes offers a mild, room temperature approach to generate ketones directly from broadly available carboxylic acids without the use of corrosive and reactive Lewis or Bronsted acid additives, and instead from compounds that are readily available, stable, and functional group compatible.
