Abstract

In the course of examining the structure-activity relationships of a series of 5-lipoxygenase- inhibitory 2-(arylmethyl)-1-naphthols,'we wanted to prepare 8-substituted analogues, hoping that greater metabolic stability would result from steric hinderance near the hydroxyl group. Synthetic approaches involving elaboration of preexisting 2-or 8-substituted naphthols were excluded because of potential difficulties arising from peri interactions, which can induce ...
