This article describes the syntheses and biological activity of five 3-arylisoquinoline natural products corydamine (1), N-formyl Corydamine (2), hypecumine (3), Decumbenine B (XW) and 2-(1,3-dioxolo [4,5-h]isoquinolin-7-yl)-4,5-dimethoxy-N-methyl-Benzeneethanamine (A), and twelve analogues. Among them, 1, 2, and A were synthesized for the first time. In vitro screening for anti-proliferative activity showed that derivative 1a could significantly inhibit the proliferation of HCC cells (IC50 = 9.82 μM on Huh7 cells and 6.83 μM on LM9 cells), a...
