2-Substituted-1-naphthols as potent 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors with topical antiinflammatory activity

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/jm00163a058

The synthesis, biological evaluation, and structure-activity relationships of a series of 1-naphthols bearing carbon substituents at the 2-position are described. These compounds are potent inhibitors of the 5-lipoxygenase from RBL-1 cells and also inhibi
