Abstract

A series of hybrid molecules consisting of benzophenones and N-cyclopropyl-3-methylbenzamides were synthesized and biologically evaluated as novel p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. In particular, we found that compound 10g displayed potent p38α MAPK inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.027 μM), high kinase selectivity, and significant anti-inflammatory activity in THP-1 monocyte cells.
