Linked aryl aryloxypropanolamines as a new class of lipid catabolic agents
摘要:
The synthesis of a series of stilbene, biaryl, tolane, diaryl ether, sulfide, sulfoxide, and sulfone oxypropanolamines as potential antiobesity agents is described. These compounds were evaluated in a mouse lipid catabolism screen, and the more active members of the series, 4, 57, and 58, were further investigated in rats and dogs. 1-(2,6-Ditert-butyl-4-trans-styrylphenoxy)-3-isopropylamino-2-propanol (4) possessed considerable lipid catabolic activity in mice and caused a significant reduction in the body weight of rats after 5 weeks and of dogs after 6 weeks. Only hematological irregularities in a chronic toxicity study precluded further development of this compound as an alternative antiobesity treatment.
Effect of structure on potency and selectivity in 2,6-disubstituted-4-(2-arylethenyl)phenol lipoxygenase inhibitors
摘要:
A series of 2,6-disubstituted 4-(2-arylethenyl)phenols with potent human neutrophil 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibiting activity (IC50S in the 10(-7) M range) and weaker human platelet cyclooxygenase (CO) inhibiting activity (IC50S in the 10(-6) M range) is described. This series evolved from the chemical modification of an antiinflammatory dual CO/5-LO inhibitor, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-[2-(3-pyridyl)ethenyl]phenol (BI-L-93 BS). The potency and selectivity for 5-LO inhibition is greatly influenced by the nature of the substituents in the 2- and 6-positions. Other structure-activity relationships that determine relative 5-LO and CO potency are discussed. In vivo activity against antigen-induced leukotriene-mediated bronchoconstriction and cell influx in guinea pigs is presented. Representatives of the series are active when administered at 30 mg/kg ip.
Aerobicoxidative dimerization of hydroxystilbenoids is described. A Cr–salen complex catalyzed the dimerization of hydroxystilbenoids in 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol to form compounds comprising a natural product-like scaffold (quadrangularin) or its precursor depending on the aromatic substituents. The addition of a catalytic amount of scandium triflate [Sc(OTf)3] to the reaction system altered

A series of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(2-arylethenyl)phenols was prepared and examined for their ability to inhibit cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase in vitro and developing adjuvant arthritis in vivo in the rat. Structure-activity relationships are discussed. Among the best compounds is (E)-2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-[2-(3-pyridinyl)ethenyl]phenol (7d). It has an IC50 of 0.67 microM for cyclooxygenase and 2.7 microM for 5-lipoxygenase and an ED50 of 2.1 mg/kg in developing adjuvant arthritis. Additional in vivo data are reported for 7d.
