Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) represents a promising drug target for anti-inflammatory therapeutics. Herein, we report the design, synthesis, and pharmacological evaluation of novel chromone derivatives via scaffold hopping to discover a new class of orally bioavailable BRD4-selective inhibitors. Two potent BRD4 bromodomain 1 (BD1)-selective inhibitors 44 (ZL0513) and 45 (ZL0516) have been
