The present invention relates to a hydrocarbyl tin complex with antitumor activity, and belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry.
The phosphonic (phosphoric) acid derivatives of hydrocarbyl tin have attracted great attention due to their strong insecticidal, bactericidal, herbicidal and other biological activities. There are some literatures about the study of hydrocarbyl tin complex of alkynyl phosphonic acid, but most of them focus on the synthesis and structure research stage, yet there are few researches on its pharmacological activities. Furthermore, most of them are intended for their bactericidal and acaricidal activities, yet few researches are conducted to find out their antitumor activities.
The present invention provides a hydrocarbyl tin complex with antitumor activity and preparation method thereof, to explore new antitumor drugs.
On the basis of full investigation of the prior art, the present invention screens out new hydrocarbyl tin complex of alkynyl phosphonic acid with antitumor activity, so as to provide a new candidate for antitumor compound.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is realized as follows:
A hydrocarbyl tin complex with antitumor activity is provided, having the following structure:
wherein, R1 is selected from n-butyl, t-butyl, phenyl, benzyl, p-chlorobenzyl and dimethylbenzyl;
and R2 is a randomly substituted alkyl, aryl and heteroaryl; n is an integer from 2.
Further, R2 is a randomly substituted C1-C4 alkyl, C6-C10 aryl and C6-C10 heteroaryl;
Further, R2 is a randomly substituted phenyl; and
the random substituent of R2 is a halogen, such as F, Cl, Br, I; a C1-C8 alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, t-butyl; a C1-C8 alkoxy, such as methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, t-butoxy; nitryl, cyano group, trifluoromethyl; and the number of the substituents is 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
The above-mentioned tin complexes of alkynyl phosphonic acid are used for the preparation of antitumor drugs, which are specifically targeted for cervical cancer, breast cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, liver cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, etc.
