Synthesis and PGE(2) production inhibition of 1H-furan-2,5-dione and 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione derivatives

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2010 Jan 15;20(2):734-7. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2009.11.067. Epub 2009 Dec 11.

Abstract

3,4-Diphenyl-substituted 1H-furan-2,5-dione and 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for the inhibitory activities on LPS-induced PGE(2) production in RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Both 1H-furan-2,5-dione and 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione rings as main scaffolds were easily obtained using one of three synthetic methods. Among the compounds investigated, 1H-3-(4-sulfamoylphenyl)-4-phenyl-pyrrole-2,5-dione (6l) showed a strong inhibitory activity (IC(50)=0.61microM) of PGE(2) production.
