A 1-cyano-2,3-secolupane derivative with an ethylketone fragment was synthesized from 2-hydroxyoximodihydrobetulonic acid methyl ester via a Grignard reaction followed by a Beckmann rearrangement and was used further to prepare α-bromo-substituted diastereomers. Nitrile-anionic cyclization of the ethylketone and α-bromo isomers produced cyclic derivatives with an alkenenitrile and an α,β-unsaturated ketone in ring A, respectively. The obtained compounds did not exhibit cytotoxic activity according to biological screening data.

Reductive allyl(alkyl)ation of triterpenoids has been achieved a few times, indicating that this approach could be used successfully to synthesize new biologically active compounds. For example, C-3 allylation under Grignard reaction conditions was reported and helped to improve the antidiabetic, cytotoxic, and anti-inflammatory activity of triterpenoids [1,2,3,4,5], including betulinic acid. Previously, 3-alkyl-substituted triterpenoids were shown by us to be useful as intermediates for preparing bioactive triterpene derivatives with a fragmented or five(six)-membered ring A [6,7,8,9,10], including lupane derivatives with pronounced antitumor properties such as methyl 3-(1-bromoethyl)-3-oxo-1-cyano-2,3-seco-2-norlup-20(29)-en-30-al-28-oate and methyl 1-cyano-3-ethyl-2-norlup-1(3),20(29)-dien-30-al-28-oate [10]. New fragmented and cyclic 3-ethyl-substituted lupane-type derivatives were synthesized and their cytotoxic activity was evaluated in continuation of research on the structure-activity (biological) relationship of C-3 alkylated triterpenoids.
The starting material for preparing the C-3 ethyl-substituted triterpenoids was hydroxyiminoketone 1, which was prepared by sequential transformations from 20,29-dihydrogenated betulin [11]. The corresponding 3β-hydroxy-3α-ethyl derivative 2 was prepared using a Grignard reaction with C2H5MgBr as the alkylating agent [9, 10]. The IR spectrum of 2 exhibited bands for C=N (1644 cm-1) and OH stretching vibrations (3313, 3437 cm-1). The 1H NMR spectrum of 2 contained characteristic doublets for the methylene H-1 protons at δ 1.52 and 3.38 ppm (AB-system, J = 12.6 Hz); a broad singlet for the OH at δ 5.89 ppm; and a resonance for the methylene H-32 protons as a doublet of quartets with centers at 1.76 and 1.85 ppm (J = 13.8, 7.2 Hz). The 13C NMR spectrum of 2 displayed resonances for C atoms bonded to OH (79.59 ppm) and hydroxyimine groups (162.63 ppm).
The ethyl derivative 2 underwent a Beckmann rearrangement using SOCl2-CH2Cl2 to form the corresponding 2,3-seco-derivative 3. The IR spectrum of 3 had characteristic absorption bands for C=O (1695 cm-1) and C≡N (2234). The 1H NMR spectrum of seco-derivative 3 exhibited two doublets for the methylene H-1 protons with centers at 2.34 and 2.54 ppm (AB-system, J = 18.0 Hz) and two types of resonances for the ethyl moiety, i.e., a triplet for the methyl at δ 1.08 ppm (J = 7.2 Hz) and a doublet of quartets at δ 2.55 and 2.74 ppm (J = 19.6 and 7.2 Hz). The 13C NMR spectrum of 3 included characteristic resonances of cyano and keto C atoms at δ 118.55 and 216.82 ppm, respectively.
The ethylketone of 2,3-seco-derivative 3 was activated by halogenation (Scheme 1) using the brominating agent pyridinium bromide perbromide [7, 9, 10]. The reaction proceeded with heating and stirring. Pure reaction products were isolated by column chromatography and included isomeric bromo-substituted derivatives 4 and 5, the NMR spectra of which differed slightly. For example, 1H NMR spectra of 4 and 5 showed the protons of the bromo-substituted ethyl group as a doublet for the methyl at 1.74 ppm (J = 6.6 Hz). The methine H-32 proton resonated as a quartet with SSCC 6.6 Hz at 5.04 (4) or 5.03 (5). Also, doublets for the methylene H-1 protons of 5 (2.58 and 2.69 ppm, J = 18.0 Hz) as compared to those of 4 (2.60 and 2.71 ppm, J = 17.9 Hz) appeared at stronger field. The 13C NMR spectrum contained resonances at stronger field for the nitrile and ester of bromo derivative 4 at 118.58 (C-2) and 176.74 (C-28) as compared to the analogous resonances of 5 at 118.72 (C-2) and 176.76 ppm (C-28). The absolute configuration of asymmetric C-32 in diastereomers 4 and 5 was confirmed based on an X-ray crystal structure analysis (XSA) of 4 (Fig. 1).
Ethylketone 3 and bromo derivative 4 underwent intramolecular nitrile-anion cyclization [12] in the basic system t-BuOK-t-BuOH [13]. The cyclization product of 3 was α,β-alkenenitrile 6. Its IR spectrum showed characteristic absorptions at 1594 (C=C), 1729 (C=O), and 2206 cm-1 (C≡N). The 1H NMR spectrum of α,β-alkenenitrile 6 lacked doublets for the methylene H-1 protons of the starting compound and retained the characteristic resonances of the ethyl moiety as a triplet for the Me-32 protons with a center at 1.13 ppm (J = 7.6 Hz) and a quartet for the methylene H-31 protons with a center at 2.28 ppm (J = 7.6 Hz). The 13C NMR spectrum of 6 exhibited resonances for the nitrile (118.33 ppm) and double-bond C atoms (120.52 and 172.41).
Cyclization of bromo derivative 4 occurred with loss of the nitrile, which led to formation of an α,β-unsaturated ketone in six-membered ring A of 7. The IR spectrum of 7 lacked bands for the nitrile and exhibited a carbonyl absorption band at 1667 cm-1. The 1H NMR spectrum included two characteristic singlets corresponding to the C-3 methyl protons (1.73 ppm) and olefinic H-1 proton (6.84 ppm). The 13C NMR spectrum exhibited resonances for C-2 and C-1 of the double bond at 130.95 and 154.85 ppm, respectively, and for the carbonyl C atom at 205.62 ppm.
A study of the cytotoxic activity against eight tumor cell lines found that compounds 3–6 were nontoxic (IC50 > 100 μM). Thus, the C-30 aldehyde group played a decisive role in the manifestation of cytotoxic activity by the previously reported ethyl-substituted lupane derivatives [10].
Experimental
1H NMR, 13C NMR, and DEPT spectra of the synthesized compounds were recorded in CDCl3 solutions (DMSO-d6 was also used for 2) with TMS internal standard on a Bruker Avance II NMR spectrometer (400 and 100 MHz, respectively). IR spectra were recorded from thin films prepared by evaporating CHCl3 solutions of the compounds on a Bruker IFS 66/S FT-IR spectrometer (Germany). The threshold melting point at heating rate 1°C/min was determined on an OptiMelt MPA100 apparatus (USA). Specific optical rotation was measured in CHCl3 solutions of the compounds on a PerkinElmer model 341 polarimeter at 589 nm. Elemental analyses (C, H, N) were performed in a Vario EL cube analyzer (Germany). The course of reactions was monitored by TLC on Sorbfil plates (Russia) after treatment with H2SO4 (5%) followed by heating at 95–100°C for 2–3 min. Column chromatography used Macherey-Nagel silica gel (60–200 μm) with elution by petroleum ether–EtOAc mixtures, the ratio of which was selected individually for each reaction product.
The XSA of 4 was performed on an Xcalibur Ruby single-crystal diffractometer (Agilent Technologies) by the standard method [Mo Kα-radiation, 295(2) K, ω-scanning in 1° steps]. Absorption corrections were applied empirically using the SCALE3 ABSPACK algorithm [14]. The structure was solved using the SHELXT program [15] and refined by anisotropic full-matrix least-squares methods over F2 for all nonhydrogen atoms using the SHELXL program [16] and the OLEX2 graphics interface [17]. H atoms were refined using a rider model. The crystal (C33H52BrNO3, MM 590.66) was monoclinic, space group P21, a = 7.705(2), b = 17.834(5), c = 11.818(3) Å , β = 92.74(2) °, V = 1621.9(7) Å3, Z = 2, dcalcd = 1.209 g/cm3, μ = 1.298 mm-1. The final refinement parameters were R1 0.0677 [for 2890 reflections with I > 2σ(I)], wR2 0.1694 (for all 5882 independent reflections, Rint 0.0297), S = 1.035, Flack parameter 0.018(8). Results for the XSA of 4 were deposited in the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre under No. CCDC 2190242 and can be requested at www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request.cif.
