4-((3,5-Dichloro-2-hydroxybenzyl)amino)-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (ZL006, 1) is a small-molecular inhibitor of the nNOS/PSD-95 interaction, that is under preclinical evaluation stage for cerebral ischemia. However, the fast metabolism and low permeability across the blood brain barrier (BBB) have restricted its further use. In this manuscript, the mass spectroscopy analysis showed that ZL006 mainly combined with glucuronic acid in mice plasma, which accelerated its metabolism and elimination. Hence, six ZL006 analogs were designed according to the probable metabolism sites of ZL006, and featured the alkylation at phenolic hydroxyl, secondary amine and carboxyl groups. These compounds were synthesized in moderate to good yields, and fully characterized with 1H NMR and MS. Further metabolism investigation of ZL006 analogs showed that phenolic hydroxyl group of aromatic ring A was the major conjugation site with glucuronic acid, and ZL006 cyclohexyl ester (6) had a better permeability across BBB, which was a potent prodrug for cerebral ischemia.
