Abstract
A series of 5-substituted derivatives of the potent phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) inhibitor 2-aminoindane-2-phosphonic acid (AIP; 2) were synthesized. The AIP analogues 3-7, with additional NO2, NH2, Me, Br, and OH groups, respectively, were tested as in vitro inhibitors of buckwheat PAL, and as in vivo inhibitors of anthocyanin biosynthesis. Within this series, the racemic 5-bromo (6) and 5-methyl (7) congeners were biologically most active (Table), although being ca. one order of magnitude less potent than AIP proper.
