Synthesis of 3-O-acetyl-2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-deoxy-4,6-O-ethylidene- alpha-(7 alpha) and-beta-D-glucopyranose (7 beta) and their 3-O-chloroacetyl analogues (11 alpha and 11 beta) are described. Condensation (BF3-etherate, ethyl acetate, -20 degrees) of 7 alpha with 4'-O-benzyloxycarbonyl-4'-O-demethyl-4-epipodophyllotoxin (8) afforded mainly the beta-glycoside 9 beta (alpha, beta-ratio 1:9). Condensation of 11 alpha beta with 8 or the 4'-O-chloroacetyl analogue 13 gave mainly the 4-O-(2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-3-O-chloroacetyl-2-deoxy-4,6-O-ethyl idene-beta-D- glucopyranosyl)-epipodophyllotoxin 12 beta or 15 beta. Glycosidation of podophyllotoxin (14) with 11 alpha beta (during which the aglycon epimerized at C-4 under the action of BF3-etherate) afforded alpha- (16 alpha) and beta-glycoside (16 beta) in the ratio 1:5. Removal of the chloroacetyl groups from 12 beta, its alpha analogue 12 alpha, and 15 beta gave the 4-O-(2-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-deoxy-4,6-O-ethylidene-alpha-(17 alpha) and -beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-4'-O-demethyl-epipodophyllotoxins (17 beta and 20 beta), respectively. Hydrogenolysis of the benzyloxycarbonyl groups then gave 4-O-(2-amino-2-deoxy-4,6-O-ethylidene-alpha- (18 alpha) and -beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-4'-O-demethyl-4-epipodophyllotoxin (18 beta). Reductive alkylation of 18 beta and 18 alpha afforded the 2"-deoxy-2"-dimethylamino-etoposide 3 and its alpha analogue 19 alpha.

D005047 Etoposide A semisynthetic derivative of PODOPHYLLOTOXIN that exhibits antitumor activity. Etoposide inhibits DNA synthesis by forming a complex with topoisomerase II and DNA. This complex induces breaks in double stranded DNA and prevents repair by topoisomerase II binding. Accumulated breaks in DNA prevent entry into the mitotic phase of cell division, and lead to cell death. Etoposide acts primarily in the G2 and S phases of the cell cycle.
