Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of buthutin derivatives as cardioprotective agents.

ABSTRACT: Natural products are the important sources in cardiovascular drug development. In this study, twenty-nine buthutin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their NHE-1 inhibition and protective effects on cardiomyocyte injury. The structure of the newly synthesized compounds had been confirmed by ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and HR-ESI-MS spectra. Among all target compounds at 1 μM, compounds 9d, 9f, 9k, 9m, and 9n, with a protection ratio exceeding 30%, exerted stronger protective effects on H9c2 cardiomyocyte than positive control dexrazoxane and buthutin A. Meanwhile, compounds 9k, 9m, and 9o showed the significant NHE-1 inhibitory activities on H9c2 cardiomyocyte, all with a dpHi/min value less than 0.23. What is more, compounds 9k, 9m, 9o and buthutin A all
