Regio-and enantioselective synthesis of (S)-(+)-3-arylamino-1-chloropropan-2-ols has been achieved by the epoxide ring opening of (+/-)-epichlorohydrin with different aromatic amines in the presence of Candida rugosa lipase. Activities of seven model (S)-(+)-3-arylamino-1-chloropropan-2-ols, out of 10 compounds synthesized, have been evaluated for the inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNF-alpha) induced expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which is one of the factors responsible for the modulation of inflammation in biological systems; (S)-(+)-1-chloro-3-(2'-chlorophenylamino)-propan-2-ol has been found to exhibit highest activity, that is, 86% inhibition of TNF-alpha induced expression of ICAM-1 at a concentration of 40 mu g/ml.
