Abstract: Described herein is a facile and efficient methodology toward the synthesis of Morusin scaffolds and Morusignin L scaffolds 4-9 and 12via a novel three-step approach (Michael addition or prenylation, cyclization and cyclization) and use a rapid, microwave-accelerated cyclization as the key step. Furthermore, their biological activities have been preliminarily demonstrated by in vitro evaluation for anti-osteoporosis activity. These Morusin, Morusignin L and newly synthesized compounds 5b, 6a, 8e, 8f greatly exhibited the highest potency, especially at the 10-5mol/L (P<0.01), and had good in vitro anti-osteoporosis activities using the commercially available standard drug Ipriflavone as a positive control. The mechanisms associated with anti-osteoporosis effects of these compounds may be through the inhibition of TRAP enzyme activity and bone resorption in osteoclasts, and promotion effect of osteoblast proliferation in vitro. The results indicated that Morusin scaffolds and Morusignin L scaffolds may be useful leads for further anti-osteoporosis activity screenings.
