Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of 1-phenylpyrazoles as xanthine oxidase inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2001 Apr 9;11(7):879-82. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(01)00093-2.

Abstract

A series of 1-phenylpyrazoles was evaluated for inhibitory activity against xanthine oxidase in vitro. Of the compounds prepared, 1-(3-cyano-4-neopentyloxyphenyl)pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (Y-700) had the most potent enzyme inhibition and displayed longer-lasting hypouricemic action than did allopurinol in a rat model of hyperuricemia induced by the uricase inhibitor potassium oxonate.
