Article: 1,2,4-Oxadiazolidin-3,5-diones and 1,3,5-triazin-2,4,6-triones as cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: 1,2,4-Oxadiazolidin-3,5-dione and 1,3,5-triazin-2,4,6-trione scaffolds were employed as templates to incorporate the pharmacophore requirements of cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha substrate mimetics. Inhibitors that are active in both enzyme, and cell-based assays were identified from both classes. From the SAR work carried out and modeling efforts around these templates, the triazinetrione scaffold with an additional substitution point was found to be more favorable.Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 07/2006; 16(11):2978-81. · 2.55 Impact Factor -
Article: Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-yl phenyl amides as novel anti-proliferative agents: parallel synthesis for lead optimization of amide region.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A novel series of p21 chemoselective agents containing a pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-yl phenyl amides were identified by high throughput screening. Optimization of the amide region by parallel synthesis and the iterative design toward understanding structure-activity relationship to improve potency are described. The isopropyl carbamate derivative 34 was identified as a highly chemoselective agent displaying a potency of 51 nM in the p21 deficient cell line.Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 04/2005; 15(6):1591-4. · 2.55 Impact Factor
