Abstract

Combretastatin A-4 is an antitumoral and antitubulin agent that is active only in its cis configuration. In the present manuscript, we have synthesized cis-locked combretastatins containing a triazole ring (combretatriazoles). To achieve this, we have developed a column chromatography-free parallel solution-phase synthesis that exploits the reaction between azides and α-keto phosphorus ylids, which is known to regioselectively generate the 1,5-disubstituted triazoles. The prepared compounds were screened as antitubulinic agents, allowing us to identify three new compounds with high potency, two of which show a new mechanism of action that induces cells to appear multinucleated and display a high number of mitotic spindles.
