This invention provides chemical inhibitors of the activity of various phospholipase enzymes, particularly cytosolic phospholipase A2 enzymes (cPLA2), more particularly including inhibitors of cytosolic phospholipase A2 alpha enzymes (cPLAα). In some embodiments, the inhibitors have the Formula I: wherein the constituent variables are as defined herein.

Compound 1 was previously reported to be a potent inhibitor of cPLA 2α in both artificial monomeric substrate and cell-based assays. However, 1 was inactive in whole blood assays previously used to characterize cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase inhibitors. The IC50 of 1 increased dramatically with cell number or lipid/detergent concentration. In an attempt to insert an electrophilic ketone between the indole and benzole acid moieties, we discovered that increasing the distance between the two moieties gave a compound with activity in the GLU (7-hydroxycoumarinyl-γ- linolenate) micelle assay, which contains lipid and detergent. Extensive structure-activity relationship work around this lead identified a potent pharmacophore for cPLA2α inhibition. The IC50s between the GLU micelle and rat whole blood assays correlated highly. No correlation was found for other parameters, including lipophilicity or acidity of the required acid functionality. Compounds 25, 39, and 94 emerged as potent, selective inhibitors of cPLA2α and represent well-validated starting points for further optimization.
Process for making an aldehyde

A process for making an aromatic aldehyde in which a sulfoxide is reacted with a dihalogenated aromatic compound in the absence of an effective amount of an activating reagent. The aldehyde may then be used to make other compounds, such as a compound that acts as a cPLA inhibitor.
