Abstract
Naturally, O-prenylation of 3-aryl-benzopyrans enhances the biological activities of these compounds. In this study, substituted O-prenylated 3-aryl-benzopyrans (21a-c, 22a-c, 23a-c, 24a-c 25a-c, 27 and 28) were synthesized and evaluated for osteogenic and cancer cell growth inhibitory potentials using cell-based in-vitro models. Amongst the target compounds, 21a, 22b, 23c, and 24c showed good osteogenic activity at 1 pM concentration, whereas 26 and 27 showed osteogenic activity at 100pM and 10nM, respectively. Compounds 21a, 22b, and 23c showed good cancer cell growth inhibitory activity against breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and MBA-231). Amongst active compounds, 27 presented the best anticancer activity against MDAMB-231 cells with selectivity towards non-cancerous cells [IC50 3.76 µM with SI 13.3]. The in-silico study of compounds showed their structural complementarities with the LBD of estrogen receptors and compliance with dragability parameters.
