A series of novel substituted [[(phenoxymethyl)phenyl]amino]oxoalkanoic acid esters have been synthesized. These compounds were tested in vitro for their ability to inhibit the synthesis of 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and leukotriene (LT) B4 from rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and in vivo as inhibitors ovalbumin- (OA) and LTD4-induced bronchospasm in the guinea pig. Compounds 5-12 and 25 had IC50's between 1 and 5.6 microM in the rat PMN 5-lipoxygenase assay. Compounds 1, 3, and 16 inhibited OA-induced bronchoconstriction (61%, 64%, and 57%, respectively), but only 1 showed activity against LTD4-induced bronchoconstriction. When tested against LTD4-induced contraction of isolated guinea pig tracheal spiral strips, 1 was a competitive inhibitor with a pKB of 4.94.
