Tetrahydroquinoline and tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives containing 2-phenyl-5-furan moiety were designed and synthesized as phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitors. The bioassay results showed that title compounds showed good inhibitory activity against PDE4B and blockade of LPS (lipopolysaccharide) induced TNF-α release, which also exhibited considerable in vivo activity in animal models of asthma/COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and sepsis induced by LPS. The bioactivity of compounds containing tetrahydroquinoline (series 4) was higher than that of tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives (series 3). Compound 4 m with 4-methoxybenzene moiety exhibited the best potential selective activity against PDE4B. The primary structure–activity relationship study and docking results showed that the tetrahydroquinoline moiety of compound 4 m played a key role to form hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interaction with PDE4B protein while the rest part of the molecule extended into the catalytic domain to block the access of cAMP and formed the foundation for inhibition of PDE4B. Based on LPS induced sepsis model for the measurement of TNF-α inhibition in Swiss Albino mice and neutrophilia inhibition for asthma and COPD in Sprague Dawley rats with the potential molecules, compound 4 m would be great promise as a hit inhibitor in the future study.
