“…To assess if modified vinca compounds could be good Pgp inhibitors, we decided to evaluate a wide range of substrates functionalized on ring A′ and/or C′, playing with the size, the location, and the orientation of the substituents. In fact, we recently disclosed the elaboration of new analogues of VLN 3 or of various C-12′-functionalized VLN derivatives by an innovative ring enlargement. , These compounds scan a large chemical space around velbenamine. Among all the derivatives elaborated by this strategy, we intentionally chose 7 – 15 (Figure ).…”
