The design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of new phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitors, which possess new templates instead of a cyclohexane ring, are described. The mode of interaction with the enzyme is discussed based on the structure-activity relationship (SAR) data obtained for the synthesized inhibitors. Furthermore, the roles of three pharmacophores, a catechol moiety, a nitrile moiety, and acidic moieties, are discussed using in silico docking studies. More detailed biological evaluations of selected compounds are also presented. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
