(E)-3,4-dihydroxystyryl alkyl sulfones, as new analogues of neurodegenerative agents, were designed and synthesized. The biological results demonstrated that most of the target compounds preserved antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potency in scavenging reactive free radicals, protecting neuronal cells against neurotoxins such as H2O2, 6-hydroxydopamine and inhibiting lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced over-production of NO. Among these compounds, 6.22 with cyclopentyl propyl exhibited prominent antioxidant activity at low concentration (2.5 μM) in H2O2 model (cell viability = 94.5%). In addition, 6.22 (IC50 = 1.6 μM) displayed better anti-inflammatory activity than that of lead compound 1 (IC50 = 13.4 μM). In view of the outstanding performance of 6.22, the apoptotic rates of H2O2-damaged PC12 cells were detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay. 6.22 showed higher potency in inhibition of apoptosis than 1 at low concentration (2.5 μM), consisting with the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory models. Furthermore, with the predicted CNS (+) blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability (Pe = 6.84 × 10?6 cm s?1), low cytotoxicity and favorable physiochemical properties based on calculation, compound 6.22 can be further developed as a potential multifunctional neuroprotective agent.
