Upon treatment with a combination of HFIP and an organic sulfonic acid, alkenes behave as Br?nsted bases and protonate to give carbocations which can be trapped by electron-rich arenes. The reaction constitutes a Friedel-Crafts hydroarylation which procee

Chemokines CXCL8 and CXCL1 play a key role in the recruitment of neutrophils at the site of inflammation. CXCL8 binds two membrane receptors, CXCR1 and CXCR2, whereas CXCL1 is a selective agonist for CXCR2. In the past decade, the physiopathological role of CXCL8 and CXCL1 has been investigated. A novel class of small molecular weight allosteric CXCR1 inhibitors was identified, and reparixin, the first drug candidate, is currently under clinical investigation in the prevention of ischemia/reperfusion injury in organ transplantation. Reparixin binding mode to CXCR1 has been studied and used for a computer-assisted design program of dual allosteric CXCR1 and CXCR2 inhibitors. In this paper, the results of modeling-driven SAR studies for the identification of potent dual inhibitors are discussed, and three new compounds (56, 67, and 79) sharing a common triflate moiety have been selected as potential leads with optimized pharmacokinetic characteristics.

The CXC chemokine CXCL8/IL-8 plays a major role in the activation and recruitment of polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells at inflammatory sites. CXCL8 activates PMNs by binding the seven-transmembrane (7-TM) G-protein-coupled receptors CXC chemokine receptor 1 (CXCR1) and CXC chemokine receptor 2 (CXCR2). (R)-Ketoprofen (1) was previously reported to be a potent and specific noncompetitive inhibitor of CXCLS-induced human PMNs chemotaxis. We report here molecular modeling studies showing a putative interaction site of 1 in the TM region of CXCR1. The binding model was confirmed by alanine scanning mutagenesis and photoaffinity labeling experiments. The molecular model driven medicinal chemistry optimization of 1 led to a new class of potent and specific inhibitors of CXCL8 biological activity. Among these, repertaxin (13) was selected as a clinical candidate drug for prevention of post-ischemia reperfusion injury.

1-(3-Vinylphenyl)-1-phenylhydrocarbons and method for producing the same. The invention further relates to 1-(3-vinylphenyl)-1-phenylethane which is used for preparing the former compound. The 1-(3-vinylphenyl)-1-phenylethylene is used as a new intermediate for preparing α-(3-benzoylphenyl)propionic acid (tradename: ketoprofen) through α-3-(1-phenylethenyl)phenyl)propionic acid or its alkyl ester. The ketroprofen is a useful medicine for the relief of pain and inflammation.
