The synthesis and CysLT1 receptor affinities of a new series of highly rigid 3′- and 4′-(2-quinolinylmethoxy)- I [Ar = 2-quinolinyl; R1 = CO2H; R2 = R3 = H; X = CH2O; Ar = 2-quinolinyl; R1 = R3 = H; R2 = CO2H; X = CH2O; Ar = 2-quinolinyl; R1 = R2 = H; R3 = CO2H; X = CH2O] or 3′- and 4′-[2-(2-quinolinyl)ethenyl]-substituted, 6-, 7-, or 8-carboxylated flavones (E)-I [Ar = 2-quinolinyl, R1 = CO2H, R2 = H, R3 = H, Br, Cl, F, Me, X = CH:CH; Ar = 2-quinolinyl, R1 = R3 = H, R2 = CO2H, X = CH:CH; Ar = 2-quinolinyl, R1 = CN, R2 = H, R3 = Cl, X = CH:CH; Ar = 2-quinolinyl; R1 = R2 = H; R3 = CO2H, CN, X = CH:CH] are described. CysLT1 receptor affinities of the flavones (down to 11 nM) were determined by their ability to displace [3H]LTD4 from its receptor in guinea pig lung membranes. Structure-affinity relationship studies showed that the relative positions of the carboxylic acid and the quinoline moiety were critical for CysLT1 affinities. While the carboxyl is optimal in the 8 position but tolerated in the 6 position, only the 6- and not the 8-tetrazole has significant activity. The quinoline moiety may be connected to the flavone skeleton by an ethenyl or a methoxy linker, but the substitution position is important for high affinity, especially in the 6-carboxylated flavones. 4′-Substituted 6-carboxyflavones are essentially inactive, whereas the 3′-substituted analogs have submicromolar CysLT1 affinity. Replacement of the quinoline by other heteroaromatics generally leads to decreased affinities, with the Ph and naphthyl analogs displaying only little or no affinity, while the 7-chloroquinoline analog is comparable in activity to the quinoline. Flavones having CysLT1 receptor affinities of 10-30 nM were selected for determination of their inhibitory effects on the LTD4-induced contraction of guinea pig ileum in vitro. The IC50 values ranged between 15 and 100 nM. 8-Carboxy-6-chloro-3′-(2-quinolinylmethoxy)flavone [VUF 5087; {(E)-I; Ar = 2-quinolinyl, R1 = CO2H, R2 = H, R3 = Cl, X = 3′-CH:CH}] was selected for further research because of its high potency in the functional assay. This series contains the most rigid CysLT1 receptor antagonists known to date, and they are useful in the development of a CysLT1 antagonist model, which is discussed in the companion paper.
