Abstract
A novel sphingomyelin inhibitor RY221B-a, which contains a bipyridyl moiety as a metal coordination site was designed based upon the mechanism of phosphate ester hydrolysis. RY221B-a was synthesized from N-Boc-sphingosine in three steps via selective etherification using stannyl acetal. Synthesized RY221B-a exhibited relatively-strong inhibitory activity against Bc-SMase (IC50 = 1.2 μM).
