A novel series of substituted benzamide derivatives bearing a 1,2,3-triazole moiety were designed and synthesized by click chemistry. Human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase inhibition assay was used to evaluate the synthesized compounds as potent hDHODH inhibitors. Most compounds showed moderate to significant potency, accompanied with a suitable clogD7.4 value and compounds 4d, 4o, and 5j effectively inhibited the activity of hDHODH with IC50 values of 2.1, 2.1 and 1.5 μM, respectively. Compound 4o also effectively suppressed proliferation of the activated PBMCs. The study of structure-activity relationships also revealed that a suitable substitution on para-position of terminal phenyl ring was crucial for high activity. Together, the most promising compound 4o might serve as a novel hDHODH inhibitors for further investigation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007166 Immunosuppressive Agents Agents that suppress immune function by one of several mechanisms of action. Classical cytotoxic immunosuppressants act by inhibiting DNA synthesis. Others may act through activation of T-CELLS or by inhibiting the activation of HELPER CELLS. While immunosuppression has been brought about in the past primarily to prevent rejection of transplanted organs, new applications involving mediation of the effects of INTERLEUKINS and other CYTOKINES are emerging.
