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.

We herein report a novel one-pot reaction for benzoylation of pyrrole. The key step in the reaction is generation of di(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)zirconium(IV) chloride complex which reacts with benzaldehydes and methyl benzoates to give 2-benzoylpyrroles as the major product.
secondary benzylic alcohols via tandem Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aromatic 2-pyridyl esters with alkyl zinc reagents and carbonyl group reduction by Ni–H species is achieved. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the Ni–H species is generated in situ via β-hydride elimination of the Negishi reagents. The reaction is catalyzed by bench-stable nickel salts under mild conditions with
The rhodium-catalyzed deoxygenation and borylation of ketones with B2pin2 have been developed, leading to efficient formation of alkenes, vinylboronates, and vinyldiboronates. These reactions feature mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and excellent functional-group compatibility. Mechanistic studies support that the ketones initially undergo a Rh-catalyzed deoxygenation to give alkenes

instrumental for efficient cycloaddition reactions to take place, thus indicating an attractive strategy for controlling the reactivity of heteroatom‐substituted allyl cations. The formal cycloaddition reaction is highly regio‐ and stereoselective and was also used for a short totalsynthesis of the natural product cuparene in racemic form through a cycloaddition–hydrodesulfurization sequence.

Compared with tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a solvent for the addition reactions between Grignard reagents and carbonyl compounds 2-methyltetrahydrofuran affords the corresponding adducts in higher yields with higher chemoselectivities. Moreover, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran can be readily recycled and reused, which lowers the cost of the process and makes the reaction greener.
