Abstract
2-Substituted 3-aroylquinolin-4(1H)-ones, prepared through a palladium-catalyzed carbonylative cyclization of N-(2-iodoaryl)enaminones, proved to inhibit efficiently the Hedgehog pathway through direct antagonism of the wild-type and drug-resistant form of the Smoothened receptor. Notably, these compounds repressed the Hh-dependent growth events and the proliferation of tumor cells with aberrant activation of the Hh pathway, which plays a crucial role in development and tumorigenesis.
