Abstract
- A new series of potent tricyclic pyrazole-based Chk1 inhibitors are described. Analogues disubstituted on the 6- and 7-positions show improved Chk1 inhibition potency compared with analogues with a single substituent on either the 6- or 7-position. Based on the lead compound 4'-(6,7-dimethoxy-2,4-dihydro-indeno[1,2-c]pyrazol-3-yl)-biphenyl-4-ol (2), detailed SAR studies on the 6- and 7-positions were performed. 3'-morpholin-4'-yl-propoxy, pyridin-4'-ylmethoxy, pyridin-3'-ylmethoxy, 2'-(5''-ethyl-pyridin-2''-yl)-ethoxy, pyridin-2'-ylethoxy, (6'-methyl-pyridin-2'-yl)-propoxyethoxy, 2',3'-dihydroxyl-1'-yl-propoxy, and tetrahydro-furan-3'-yloxy have been identified as the best groups on the 6-position when the 7-position is substituted with methoxyl group. Pyridin-2'-ylmethoxy and pyridin-3'-ylmethoxy have been identified as the best substituents at the 7-position while the 6-position bearing methoxyl group. These compounds significantly potentiate the cytotoxicity of DNA-damaging antitumor agents in a cell-based assay and efficiently abrogate the doxorubicin-induced G2/M and the camptothecin-induced S checkpoints, suggesting that their potent biological activities are mechanism-based through Chk1 inhibition.
