Abstract

Fourteen novel vanin-1 inhibitors coded OMP-# were designed from RR6 and successfully synthesized by a nucleophilic addition–elimination reaction of the pantetheinic acid-derived Weinreb amide as a key step under Barbier conditions. The synthesized OMP compounds exhibited inhibitory activity against human serum vanin-1 in vitro. Among the synthesized compounds, OMP-7, which possesses a trifluoromethoxy group at the para-position on the phenyl ring, exhibited the most potent activity, approximately 20 times that of the mother compound RR6. OMP-7 was further subjected to an in vivo assay using a normal hamster. More potent activity was observed than that of RR6 against both serum and renal vanin-1. The activity lasted for 4 h after injection against serum vanin-1 and 1 h after injection against renal vanin-1, whereas RR6 did not show the desired activity.
