Although benzbromarone (BBR) is a conventional, highly potent uricosuric drug, it is not a standard medicine because it causes rare but fatal fulminant hepatitis. We transformed the bis-aryl ketone structure of BBR to generate novel monocyclic amide-linked phenol derivatives that should possess uric acid excretion activity without adverse properties associated with BBR. The derivatives were synthesized and tested for uric acid uptake inhibition (UUI) in two assays using either urate transporter 1-expressing cells or primary human renal proximal tubule epithelial cells. We also evaluated their inhibitory activity against mitochondrial respiration as a critical mitochondrial toxicity parameter. Some derivatives with UUI activity had no mitochondrial toxicity, including compound 3f, which effectively lowered the plasma uric acid level in Cebus apella. Thus, 3f is a promising candidate for further development as a uricosuric agent.
