Abstract

By employing an intramolecular Pd(0)-mediated ring opening of an acylnitroso-derived cycloadduct, new hydroxamic acid containing benzodiazepines have been synthesized and have demonstrated biological activity in MCF-7 and PC-3 tumor cell lines. Subsequent N-O bond reduction of the hydroxamate has provided access to amide analogues for SAR studies. During the course of our syntheses, an intermediate oxazoline N-oxide was isolated and gave insight into the mechanism of the key Pd(0)-mediated reaction.
