Abstract

A new class of 1,3-diphenylprop-2-yn-1-ones possessing a p-MeSO2 COX-2 phamacophore on the C-3 phenyl ring was designed for evaluation as dual inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX). Among the group of compounds evaluated, 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(4-methanesulfonylphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-one (11j) exhibited excellent COX-2 inhibitory potency (COX-2 IC50 = 0.1 microM) and selectivity (SI = 300), whereas 1-(4-cyanophenyl)-3-(4-methanesulfonylphenyl)prop-2-yn-1-one (11d) exhibited an optimal combination of COX and LOX inhibition (COX-2 IC50 = 1.0 microM; COX-2 SI = 31.5; 5-LOX IC50 = 1.0 microM; 15-LOX IC50 = 3.2 microM).
