Optimization of Imidazole 5-Lipoxygenase Inhibitors and Selection and Synthesis of a Development Candidate

Structural modification of imidazole 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors for optimizing inhibitory potency, pharmacokinetic behavior and toxicity (ocular) profile led to 4-{3-[4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylthio]}phenyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxamide (6) with no observable ocular toxicit...

Zusammenfassung:Structural modification of imidazole 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors for optimizing inhibitory potency, pharmacokinetic behavior and toxicity (ocular) profile led to 4-{3-[4-(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)phenylthio]}phenyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxamide (6) with no observable ocular toxicity. The orally active and safe imidazole 5-LO inhibitor 6 was selected as a clinical candidate and advanced to clinical studies. An improved synthesis of 6 is also discussed.
