Synthesis and inhibition of Src kinase activity by 7-ethenyl and 7-ethynyl-4-anilino-3-quinolinecarbonitriles

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2004 May 3;14(9):2155-8. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2004.02.035.

Abstract

A series of 7-ethynyl and 7-ethenyl-4-anilino-3-quinolinecarbonitriles were synthesized and tested for Src inhibition. Derivatives bearing a C-6 methoxy group and 2,4-dichloro-5-methoxyaniline at C-4 showed optimal inhibition of Src enzymatic and cellular activity. The ethenyl and ethynyl groups were incorporated at C-7 utilizing a Stille, Heck, or Sonogashira coupling reaction.
