A group of 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol) esters were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential inhibitors of soybean 15-lipoxygenase (SLO). Compounds 4c, 4d 4f, 4p, and 4q showed the best IC50 in SLO inhibition (IC50 = 1.7, 2.3, 2.1, 2.2, and 0.017 μM, respectively). All compounds were docked into SLO active site and showed that allyl group of compounds is oriented toward the iron atom in the active site of SLO. It is assumed that lipophilic interaction of ligand-enzyme would be in charge of inhibiting the enzyme activity. The selectivity of eugenol derivatives in inhibiting 15-HLOb was also compared with 15-HLOa by molecular modeling and multiple alignment techniques.

Two different classes of silicone-modified ligands were prepared: nitrile derivatives, 4′-[3-(organosilyl)propoxy]-biphenyl-4-carbonitrile R′3SiC3H6OC6H 4C6H4CN 2 (R′3Si- = a: Me 3SiOSiMe2-, b: (Me3SiO)2SiMe-, c: Me3SiO(Me2SiO)3SiMe2-, d: Me 3SiO(Me2SiO)25SiMe2-); and, pyridine derivatives, isonicotinic acid 2-methoxy-4-[3-(organosilyl)propyl]phenyl ester R′3SiC 3H6Ph(OMe)OC(O)C5H4N 6. Compounds 2 and 6 were bound to Pd and Pt using ligand substitution reactions with organometallic precursors to give (R3SiC3H 6OC6H4C6H4CN) 2PdCl2 3, (R3SiC3H 6OC6H4C6H4CN) 2PtCl2 4 and (R3SiC3H 6C6H3(OMe)OC(O)C5H 4N)PtCl2(η2-1-octene) 8. The polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-supported Pt and Pd compounds 3d and 4d had excellent solubility in both organic solvents and polysiloxanes. All the Pt compounds exhibited good catalytic activity for hydrosilylation of vinylsilanes. The PDMS-supported Pd compound 3d also was effective catalyst for hydrosilylation of a diene, isoprene, with 1,1,1,3,3-pentamethyldisiloxane MMH to produce the 1,4-adduct Me3SiOSiMe 2CH2CH=CMeCH2-H as a major product.
