Synthèse et étude de l’activité biologique de nouveaux analogues du N-acétylcolchinol
N-acetylcolchinol is a semi-synthetic inhibitor of the polymerization of tubulin into microtubules, that showed promising activity as vascular-disrupting agent. However, its toxicity evidenced in phase I clinical trials precluded its further development. This thesis describes the synthesis and biological evaluation of new allocolchicinoids, analogues of N-acetylcolchinol.A racemic synthesis of the dibenzoxepine framework of these compounds was first established. A Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, a Grignard addition and a Brønsted acid-mediated cyclodehydration constituted the key steps of the strategy. Then, three different series of dibenzoxepines have been synthesized, which differ by the nature of the substituent on the oxepine medium ring and on phenyl rings. These new dibenzoxepines were tested against the inhibition of microtubule assembly, leading to a structure-activity relationship study.Le N-acétylcolchinol est un composé hémi-synthétique connu pour inhiber la polymérisation de la tubuline en microtubules. Il a montré une activité prometteuse en tant qu’agent ciblant la vascularisation tumorale, cependant, sa cardiotoxicité a conduit à l’arrêt des essais cliniques en phase I. Cette thèse porte sur la synthèse et l'évaluation biologique de nouveaux allocolchicinoïdes, composés analogues du N-acétylcolchinol. Dans un premier temps, une nouvelle voie de synthèse permettant l’accès, de façon racémique, au squelette dibenzoxépine de ces molécules a été mise au point. Elle comprend notamment trois étapes clés, un couplage de Suzuki-Miyaura, une addition de Grignard et une cyclodéshydratation effectuée en présence d’un acide de Brønsted. Par la suite, trois séries d’allocolchicinoïdes de structures variées, que ce soit au niveau du cycle médian oxépine ou des substituants présents sur les noyaux benzéniques, ont été synthétisées. L’activité sur tubuline de la plupart de ces molécules a été évaluée, ce qui a conduit à une rationalisation des relations structure-activité

Synthetic approaches to amino analogues of N-acetylcolchinol.
International audienceA straightforward synthesis of aminodibenzoxepines, new analogues of N-acetylcolchinol, is reported by using two different strategies. The first strategy involves a Grignard addition, a biaryl Suzuki-Miyaura coupling, and a HF-mediated cyclodehydration as key steps. A second strategy, better adapted to the synthesis of analogues bearing a benzylic substituent, was designed by inverting the order of the Grignard addition and the biaryl coupling. This allowed the rapid and reliable production of a series of substituted aminodibenzoxepines. A chelate model was proposed to account for the diastereoselectivity observed in the Grignard addition step
Direct Alkylation of Heteroaryls Using Potassium Alkyl- and Alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates
Suzuki Coupling of Potassium Cyclopropyl- and Alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates with Benzyl Chlorides
Efficient Csp<sup>3</sup>–Csp<sup>3</sup> Suzuki
couplings
have been developed with both potassium cyclopropyl- and alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates.
Moderate to good yields have been achieved in the cross-coupling of
potassium cyclopropyltrifluoroborate with benzyl chlorides possessing
electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents. Benzyl chloride
was also successfully cross-coupled to potassium alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates
derived from primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols
Synthesis and Reactivity of Solid-Supported Organotrifluoroborates in Suzuki Cross-Coupling
Solid-supported organotrifluoroborates were prepared in high yields by ion exchange with Amberlyst resins. The reactivity of solid supported aryltrifluoroborates was evaluated in Suzuki–Miyaura couplings with numerous aryl bromide partners. Electron-rich and -poor substituents were tolerated on both substrates, providing yields up to 90%. Examples of alkyl-, alkenyl-, alkynyl-, and heteroaryltrifluoborates were also successfully cross-coupled to aryl halides

Comparative Evaluation of Urinary PCA3 and TMPRSS2: ERG Scores and Serum PHI in Predicting Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness
It has been suggested that urinary PCA3 and TMPRSS2:ERG fusion tests and serum PHI correlate to cancer aggressiveness-related pathological criteria at prostatectomy. To evaluate and compare their ability in predicting prostate cancer aggressiveness, PHI and urinary PCA3 and TMPRSS2:ERG (T2) scores were assessed in 154 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy for biopsy-proven prostate cancer. Univariate and multivariate analyses using logistic regression and decision curve analyses were performed. All three markers were predictors of a tumor volume ≥0.5 mL. Only PHI predicted Gleason score ≥7. T2 score and PHI were both independent predictors of extracapsular extension (≥pT3), while multifocality was only predicted by PCA3 score. Moreover, when compared to a base model (age, digital rectal examination, serum PSA, and Gleason sum at biopsy), the addition of both PCA3 score and PHI to the base model induced a significant increase (+12%) when predicting tumor volume >0.5 mL. PHI and urinary PCA3 and T2 scores can be considered as complementary predictors of cancer aggressiveness at prostatectomy
