Abstract

We have designed and efficiently synthesized novel 1-phenyl-6-aminouracils by replacing the chroman moiety in CX-659S, a nonsteroidal dermatologic candidate, with dimethyldihydrobenzofuranol to cancel CX-659S asymmetric center. Medicinal chemistry effort culminated in the discovery of 13d bearing a 3-methyl group at the 1-phenyl group as a promising compound. Compound 13d, having good in vitro ADME profile and moderate oral bioavailability in mice, showed potent anti-inflammatory activity against hapten-induced contact hypersensitivity reaction in mice following topical and oral administration. The effects of 13d were equipotent to that of tacrolimus or prednisolone. In addition, compound 13d, having potent hydroxyl radical-scavenging activity, showed more potent suppressive effect on substance P-induced pruritus in mice than oxatomide.
