C14 alkyl benzoate ABG001, derived from naturally occurring gentisides, was reported to exhibit neurotrophic activity which is similar to NGF (Nerve Growth Factor). In this research, ABG001 was modified by the strategy of isosteric replacement and conformational restriction with the purpose of improving the bioactivity. The cellular neurotrophic activity of those ABG001 derivatives were evaluated, among which 3-hydroxyquinolin-2-(1H)-one A3 and 4-decylphenol ester B7 displayed much better neurotrophic activity compared with ABG001, which highlights the potential of those novel scaffolds for future neurotrophic agent development.
Synthesis, biochemical evaluation and rationalisation of a series of 3,5- dibromo derivatives of 4-hydroxyphenyl ketone-based compounds as probes of the active site of type 3 of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-hsd3) and the role of hydrogen bonding interaction in the inhibition of 17β-HSD3

We report the synthesis, evaluation and rationalisation of the inhibitory activity of a series of 3,5-dibromo derivatives of 4-hydroxyphenyl ketone as probes of the active site of the type 3 of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD3). The results support the important role of hydrogen bonding interaction in the inhibition of 17β-HSD3.

A series of gemini n-alkylphenol polyoxyethylene surfactants (GAP) were successfully synthesized and their molecular structure were confirmed by NMR and FTIR spectrum. Using the same synthesis route, a Gemini nonylphenol polyoxyethylene surfactant (GNP) was synthesized using an industrial nonylphenol product and paraformaldehyde, and its molecular structure was also characterized by 1H-NMR and FTIR spectra. The optimal reaction conditions were established. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of GAP were determined by means of Wilhelmy plate method and steady-state fluorescence probe method. The experimental results show how the lengths of the hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chain and the hydrophobic tail alter the CMC values. The CMC values of the GAP are found to be much lower than those of corresponding conventional single tail nonionic surfactants of the polyethoxylated alkylphenol type, which indicates that the gemini species exhibit a better surface activity.

In an effort to aid the design of 'dual-inhibitors' of types 1 and 3 of the 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD), we report the synthesis, biochemical evaluation and rationalisation of the inhibitory activity of trifluoromethanesulfonate derivatives of 4-hydroxyphenyl ketone-based compounds which were found to be weak inhibitors of types 1 and 3.

We report the preliminary results of the synthesis and biochemical evaluation of a number of 4-hydroxyphenyl ketones as inhibitors of the isozyme of the enzyme 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) responsible for the conversion of androstenedione (AD) to testosterone (T), more specifically type 3 (17β-HSD3). The results of our study suggest that we have synthesised compounds which are, in general, potent inhibitors of 17β-HSD3, in particular, we discovered that 1-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)-nonan-1-one (8) was the most potent (IC50 = 2.86 ± 0.03 μM). We have therefore provided good lead compounds in the synthesis of novel non-steroidal inhibitors of 17β-HSD3.

We report the initial results of our study into a series of simple 4-sulfamated phenyl alkyl ketones as potential inhibitors of the enzyme estrone sulfatase. The results of the study show that these compounds are potent inhibitors, possessing greater inhibitory activity than COUMATE, but weaker activity than EMATE. Furthermore, the compounds are observed to be irreversible inhibitors.

We report the initial structure-activity relationship study (SAR) (in particular log P) of a series of compounds based upon 4-sulfamated phenyl ketones as potent inhibitors of the enzyme estrone sulfatase (ES). The results of the study show that these compounds are irreversible inhibitors of ES and that they are more potent than COUMATE, but weaker than EMATE. Analysis of the SAR data shows a strong correlation between IC50 and log P but also supports our previous study, which suggests a very strong relationship between pKa and IC50.

On the premise that it is necessary to develop antiestrogens with a higher cytotoxic component in order to reduce the risks of the development of heterogeneous malignant cell populations in breast cancer, we studied a novel series of basic diphenylethylenes, for the most part devoid of estrogenic activity, with low antiestrogenicity but much enhanced cytotoxicity compared to the reference drug tamoxifen. The main structural features associated with cytotoxicity were E isomery, substituents of five to eight carbons on the ethylene bond, and dibasicity.
Tilt Angle Variation as a Function of Chain Length and Temperature in the Smectic C Phases of p,Alkoxyphenyl-p,Alkoxybenzoates
Heinrich, B.,Guillon, D.
, p. 21 - 44 (2007/10/02)
The variation of the tilt angle with temperature in the smectic C phase has generally been shown to be non-existent or very slow for compounds or mixtures with the nematic-smectic C transition, while in the case of systems with the smectic A-smectic C transition, a relation between the steepness of this variation, near the transition, and the width of the smectic A domain has been observed.In this work, the variation of tilt angle in the smectic C phase is described for p-alkoxyphenyl-p-alkoxybenzoate homologous series, for which the evolution of polymorphism can be controlled systematically, by varying stepwise the length of the aliphatic chains, and for which large domains can be obtained for each type of phase sequence, nematic-, smectic A- and isotropic-smectic C.After completing the discussion made previously on the incidence of chain length on polymorphism, we confirm that the variation of tilt angle with temperature is slowest for compounds with intermediate chain lengths corresponding to the largest smectic A temperature range; this variation becomes continuously steeper when the smectic A domain becomes narrow.In addition, we show that the same description can be extended to the other types of phase sequences, by using the hypothesis of a virtual smectic A-smectic C transition above the observed nematic- or isotropic-smectic C transition.In fact, short chain lengths for homologues with a nematic/smectic C transition, or long chain lengths for homologues with an isotropic/smectic C transition, lead to an increase of the tilt angle at the phase transition and to a decrease of the amplitude of its variation with temperature; in our description, this behaviour corresponds to an increase of the temperature range between the real and virtual transitions.As a consequence, the homologues with very short and very long chain lengths show a quasi temperature-independent tilt angle, while the other homologues present a tilt angle variation similar to that observed for compounds exhibiting a smectic C/smectic A transition.This feature indicates that there is no need to distinguish between different types of smectic C phase.
