A series of novel 4-oxa-podophyllotoxin derivatives 7 featuring the intact lactone ring D and various substituents in rings B and E has been synthesized and evaluated in a phenotypic sea urchin embryo assay along with the representative 4-aza-analogs 5 for their antimitotic and microtubule destabilizing activity. The most active compounds exhibited myristicin-derived or a 3',5'-dimethoxy substitution pattern in the ring E and a 6-methoxy moiety replacing the methylenedioxy ring A. Compounds 5xb, 5xe, 5yb, 7xa, 7xb, and 7xc showed potent antiproliferative effects in the NCI60 cytotoxicity screen. Notably, growth of the multi-drug resistant NCI/ADR-RES cells was more affected by these agents than the parent OVCAR-8 cell line. Although generally 4-oxa-podophyllotoxins were less potent than the respective 4-aza-derivatives in these assays, stability of the former series towards oxidation may prove to be of interest for the development of anticancer agents with in vivo activity.
