One common characteristic of human cancer is overexpression of Mcl-1. Mcl-loverexpression prevents cancer cells from undergoing programmed cell death (apoptosis), allowing the cells to survive despite widespread genetic damage.
Mcl-1 is a member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. The Bcl-2 family includes pro-apoptotic members (such as BAX and BAK) which, upon activation, form a homo-oligomer in the outer mitochondrial membrane that leads to pore formation and the escape of mitochondrial contents, a step in triggering apoptosis. Antiapoptotic members of the Bcl-2 family (such as Bcl-2, Bcl-XL, and Mcl-1) block the activity of BAX and BAK. Other proteins (such as BID, BIM, BIK, and BAD) exhibit additional regulatory functions.
Research has shown that Mcl- 1 inhibitors can be useful for the treatment of cancers. MCl-1 is overexpressed in numerous cancers. See Beroukhim et al. (2010) Nature 463, 899-90. Cancer cells containing amplifications surrounding the Mcl-1 and Bcl-2-1-1 anti-apoptotic genes depend on the expression of these genes for survival. Beroukhim et al. Mcl- 1 is a relevant target for the re-iniation of apoptosis in numerous cancer cells. See G. Lessene, P. Czabotar and P.

After the mixture was stirred at – 44°C for 30 min, the reaction was allowed to warm to rt and stirred for 1.5 h (LC/MS confirmed the reaction was complete). The reaction mixture was cooled to 5°C, quenched (170 mL of sat. aqueous NH4C1 and 170 mL of FLO) while maintaining temperature between 5°C and 14°C, and acidified (340 mL of 10% aqueous citric acid). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was back-extracted with EtOAc (500 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (3 x 500 mL), dried (MgS04), and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide a crude target compound (30.1 g, 49.1 mmol, quantitatively) (purity >98% with no over 1% major impurity from HPLC) as a bright yellow solid. After the same scale reaction was repeated four times, all the crude products (4 x 49.1 mmol = 196 mmol) were dissolved in EtOAc, combined, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Then the combined crude product was recrystallized as follows:
ethanol (800 mL) was added to the crude product and the resulting slurry solution was shaken while heating the solution for 20 min. H20 (250 mL) was added dropwise for 30 min at rt and the slurry was cooled down to 0°C. After the slurry was kept in an ice bath for 4 h, the solid product was filtered through filter paper. The filter cake was rinsed with ice-cold 30% FLO in EtOH (300 mL) and air-dried for 2 days. The product was further dried under high vacuum at 40°C for 4 days to provide the pure target compound (1 15 g, 188 mmol, 96 % yield) as a
