Abstract

Six peptidyl organotrifluoroborates and their corresponding boronate esters and/or boronic acid analogs were designed and synthesized. Their anti-proliferative activity against hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) and human metastatic breast cancer cells (MDA-MB231) were evaluated by use of an MTT assay. Potassium {4-[(3S,6S,9S)-3,6-dibenzyl-9-isopropyl-4,7,10-trioxo-11-oxa-2,5,8-triazadodecyl]phenyl}trifluoroborate (B6) was potent (IC50 = 29.9 μM) against MDA-MB231, and {4-[(3S,6S,9S)-6-benzyl-3-((benzyloxy)methyl)-9-isopropyl-4,7,10-trioxo-11-oxa-2,5,8-triazadodecyl]phenyl}boronic acid (B9) and Potassium {4-[(3S,6S,9S)-6-benzyl-3-((benzyloxy)methyl)-9-isopropyl-4,7,10-trioxo-11-oxa-2,5,8-triazadodecyl]phenyl}trifluoroborate (B10) had broad anti-proliferative activity against HepG2 (IC50 = 24.7 and 21.8 μM, respectively) and MDA-MB231 (IC50 = 24.5 and 18.9 μM, respectively).
