2,2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-5-[4-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl]-3(2H)furanone derivatives, 3 and 6, were shown to be effectively transformed in vivo into the corresponding methylsulfone derivatives 1 and 4, when orally administered to rats. Pharmacological implications for use of sulfoxide analogues 3 and 6 are discussed as prodrugs to potent selective COX-2 inhibitors 1 and 4.
2,2-二甲基-4-苯基-5-[4-(甲基亚磺酰基)苯基]-3(2H)呋喃酮衍生物3和6经对大鼠口服给药后，显示在体内可有效转化为相应的甲基砜衍生物1和4。文中讨论了将亚砜类似物3和6作为强效选择性COX-2抑制剂1和4的前药的药理学意义。
