Water solubility was previously found to be essential for in vivo-antimalarial activity of a novel type of benzophenone-based farnesyltransferase inhibitors. Introduction of a α-amino group into the phenylacetic acid substructure provided more soluble compounds with high farnesyltransferase inhibitory activity. The in vitro-antimalarial activity was detrimentally influenced by this structural modification.

We have demonstrated that the p-trifluoromethylphenylpropionylamino residue at the 2-position of the core structure leads to an active benzophenone-type anti-malarial agent. The attempt to improve water solubility by introduction of an amino group into th

We have described 5-(4-propoxycinnamoylamino)-2-(4-tolylacetylamino)benzophenone 6e as a novel lead for anti-malarial agents. Anti-malarial activity of these 5-(4-propoxycinnamoylamino)benzophenones proved to be quite sensitive against variations of the a

We have developed a 4-nitrocinnamoyl substituted benzophenone as a novel non-thiol farnesyltransferase inhibitor. Replacement of the p-tolyl moiety of our initial lead structure by different para and ortho substituted phenyl residues as well as by 1-naphthyl resulted in derivatives with considerably enhanced activity displaying IC50 values between 42 and 52 nM. These compounds represent novel, readily accessible non-thiol farnesyltransferase inhibitors being more active than the corresponding thiol-containing analogues. Copyright

Because of the involvement of farnesylated proteins in oncogenesis, inhibition of the protein-modifying enzyme farnesyltransferase is considered a major emerging strategy in cancer therapy. Here, we describe the structure - activity relationship of a nove
