Abstract
A new class of estrogen receptor β (ERβ) ligands based on the 2-phenylquinoline scaffold was prepared. Several analogues with C4 substitution displayed high affinity (3–5 nM) and significant selectivity (up to 83-fold) for ERβ. The best compound, 13b, was profiled as a selective partial agonist for ERβ at 1 μM in a cell-based transcriptional assay. Uterine weight bioassay of 13b indicated no activation of ERα in vivo.
