To find effective antiprion compounds, we synthesized and evaluated various pyrazolone derivatives. Seven of 19 compounds showed inhibition of PrP-res accumulation and the remarkably active compound 13 showed an IC50 value of 3 nM in both ScN2a and F3 cell lines. Findings from studies on physicochemical and biochemical properties suggest that the action mechanism of these compounds does not correlate with any antioxidant activities, any of hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, or any SOD-like activities.
Hydroxyl radical scavenging by edaravone derivatives: Efficient scavenging by 3-methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)-5-pyrazolone with an intramolecular base

We synthesized various 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone (edaravone) derivatives and evaluated their oxidation potential and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. It was found 3-methyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)-5-pyrazolone had a much higher ability to scavenge the radical than did edaravone itself. Its efficient radical scavenging activity was assumed to be due to the increase of its anion form, an active form, by a hydrogen-bonded intramolecular base.
