In continuing our program aimed to search for tyrosinase inhibitors, a series of novel 4-O-substituted phenylmethylenethiosemicarbazones were rational designed, synthesized and their inhibitory effects on the diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase were also evaluated. A fair number of compounds were found to have significant tyrosinase inhibitiory activity. Particularly, the IC50 values of compounds 3a—g, 3j and 3s were of the same magnitude as tropolone, one of the best tyrosinase inhibitors known so far. Furthermore, the structure–activity relationships of these compounds were also investigated. All these data suggested that these molecules might be utilized for the development of new candidate for the treatment of dermatological disorders, and further development of such compounds may be of interest.
在我们继续进行寻找酪氨酸酶抑制剂的项目中,合理设计并合成了一系列新型的4-O取代苯甲烯硫脲衍生物,同时评估了它们对蘑菇酪氨酸酶二酚酶活性的抑制效果。发现相当多的化合物具有显著的酪氨酸酶抑制活性。特别是化合物3a—g、3j和3s的IC50值与已知的最佳酪氨酸酶抑制剂之一的特罗泊酮相当。此外,这些化合物的结构—活性关系也进行了研究。所有这些数据表明,这些分子可能被用于开发治疗皮肤疾病的新候选药物,而且对这些化合物的进一步开发可能会引起兴趣。
