Abstract

A series of β-substituted polythiophene derivatives was synthesized through palladium- catalyzed coupling reaction. Their structure-protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitory activity relationship was studied. The carboxaldehyde and hydroxymethyl derivatives of α- terthiophene were potent PKC inhibitors (IC50= 10− 7 M).
