Abstract

As part of our program to explore the influence of small structural modifications on the biological response of the estrogen receptor-α (ERα), we prepared and evaluated a series of mono-and di-substituted phenyl vinyl estradiols. The target compounds were prepared in 45–80% yields using the Stille coupling reaction and evaluated using competitive binding analysis with the ERα-ligand binding domain (hERα-LBD) and estrogenic activity (induction of alkaline phosphatase in Ishikawa cells). Results indicated that the 2,4- and 2,5-dimethyl derivatives, 5b and 5c, had the highest relative binding affinity (RBA=20.5 and 37.3%) and relative stimulatory activity (RSA=101.0% and 12.3%) of the di-methyl series.
