Starting from tadalafil as a template, a series of functionalized tetrahydro-β-carboline derivatives have been prepared and identified as novel potent and selective PDE5 inhibitors. Replacing the 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl at position 6 of tadalafil, together with elongation of the N2-methyl substituent and manipulation of the stereochemical aspects of the two chiral carbons led to the identification of compound XXI, a highly potent PDE5 inhibitor (IC(50) = 3 nM). Compound XXI was also highly selective for PDE5 versus PDE3B, PDE4B, and PDE11A, with a selectivity index of 52 and 235 towards PDE5 rather than PDE11 with both cAMP and cGMP as substrate, respectively.
以他达拉非为模板,我们合成了一系列的四氢-β-咔啉衍生物,并将其鉴定为新型强效和选择性 PDE5 抑制剂。将他达拉非 6 位的 3,4-亚甲二氧基苯基替换,同时延长 N2-甲基取代基,并调整两个手性碳原子的立体化学方面,得到了化合物 XXI,这是一种高效的 PDE5 抑制剂(IC50=3 nM)。化合物 XXI 对 PDE5 的选择性也高于 PDE3B、PDE4B 和 PDE11A,分别以 cAMP 和 cGMP 为底物时,对 PDE5 的选择性指数为 52 和 235,而对 PDE11 的选择性指数分别为 52 和 235。
