Synthesis and Anticancer Activities of Novel Guanylhydrazone and Aminoguanidine Tetrahydropyran Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: In this paper we present the convenient syntheses of six new guanylhydrazone and aminoguanidine tetrahydropyran derivatives 2-7. The guanylhydrazone 2, 3 and 4 were prepared in 100% yield, starting from corresponding aromatic ketones 8a-c and aminoguanidine hydrochloride accessed by microwave irradiation. The aminoguanidine 5, 6 and 7 were prepared by reduction of guanylhydrazone 2-4 with sodium cyanoborohydride (94% yield of 5, and 100% yield of 6 and 7). The aromatic ketones 8a-c were prepared from the Barbier reaction followed by the Prins cyclization reaction (two steps, 63%-65% and 95%-98%). Cytotoxicity studies have demonstrated the effects of compounds 2-7 in various cancer and normal cell lines. That way, we showed that these compounds decreased cell viabilities in a micromolar ran
