Cyclam derivatives with methylphosphonic acid arms in position 1,8 and substituent R = H, Me, CH2Ph in positions 4 and 11 are synthesised by Mannich reaction of an appropriate cyclam derivative, formaldehyde and phosphonic acid/diethyl phosphite followed by removal of protecting benzyl groups from nitrogen atoms. Mono(methylphosphonic acid) derivative of cyclam can be obtained by a similar route. Crystal structures of four phosphonic acid derivatives show the same ring conformation and orientation pendants due to strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds between phosphonate oxygen atoms and protonated nitrogen atoms adjacent over ethylene chains. The hydrogen bonds are stable even in aqueous solution. Activation parameters for destabilisation of the conformation are estimated from temperature-dependent NMR measurement. The protonation constants determined confirm the expected high basicity of the compounds and its dependence on the nitrogen atom substituents. The enhanced basicity of the nitrogen atoms non-bonded to methylenephosphonic acid moiety, is explained by the presence of the strong hydrogen bonds.

Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] was readily bound to kaolinite, illite, and bentonite clay and to charcoal and muck but not to ethyl cellulose. Fe+++ and Al+++-saturated clays and organic matter adsorbed more glyphosate than Na+ or Ca+-saturated clays and organic matter. Glyphosate appears to be bound to the soil through the phosphonic acid moiety as phosphate in the soil competed with 14C-glyphosate for adsorption sites. Glyphosate mobility in the soil was very limited and was affected by pH, phosphate level, and soil type. The 14C-glyphosate was biodegraded in soil to 14CO2 possibly by co-metabolism. Potentiometric titrations of the compound gave pKa values of 2, 2.6, 5.6, and 10.6.

Structural motifs found in naturally occurring compounds are frequently used by researchers to develop novel synthetic drug candidates. Some of these new agents are hybrid molecules which are designed through a concept of combining more than one functional element. In this report, anticancer activity of new synthetic molecular hybrids, substituted 3-diethoxyphosphorylnaphtho[2,3-b]furan-4,9-diones and 3-diethoxyphosphorylbenzo[f]indole-4,9-diones, which integrate natural 1,4-naphtalenedione scaffold, present in several anticancer agents, with pharmacophoric phosphonate moiety, were tested against hepatocellular cell line HepG2. Cytotoxicity was examined using MTT assay. Two most potent compounds, furandione 8a and benzoindoldione 12a, which reduced the number of viable HepG2 cells with the IC50 values of 4.13 µM and 5.9 µM, respectively, were selected for further research. These compounds decreased the mRNA expression levels of several genes: Bcl-2, angiogenic vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), c-Fos, caspase-8 and increased the expression of Bax, caspase-3 and -9, c-Jun, p21, p53, as determined by quantitative real-time PCR. The ability of these compounds to induce apoptosis and DNA damage was studied by flow cytometry. The obtained data showed that the new compounds inhibited cell viability by increasing apoptosis and decreasing angiogenesis. Compound 8a was a much stronger apoptosis inducer as compared with 12a and strongly activated the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis, associated with the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and changes in Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. These findings show that the synthetic hybrids combining 1,4-naphthalenedione system and phosphonic acid moiety display potential to be further explored in the development of new anticancer agents.
