Aiming to assess the biological activities of synthetic 1,4-benzoquinones, we previously synthesized different libraries of benzoquinones with lipophilic and bulky alkyl- or aryl-substituents that inhibited 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). The high potency of 4,5-dimethoxy-3-alkyl-1,2-benzoquinones on 5-LO led to the idea to further modify the structures and thus to improve the inhibitory potential in vitro and in vivo as well as to investigate SARs. Systematic structural optimization through accurate structure-based design resulted in compound 30 (3-tridecyl-4,5-dimethoxybenzene-1,2-diol), an ubiquinol derivative that exhibited the strongest anti-inflammatory effect, with a 10-fold improved 5-LO inhibitory activity (IC50 = 28 nM) in activated neutrophils. Moreover, 30 significantly reduced inflammatory reactions in the carrageenan-induced mouse paw oedema and in zymosan-induced peritonitis in mice. Compound 30 (1 mg/kg, i.p.) potently suppressed the levels of cysteinyl-LTs 30 min after zymosan, outperforming zileuton at a dose of 10 mg/kg. The binding patterns of the quinone- and hydroquinone-based 5-LO inhibitors were analyzed by molecular docking. Together, we elucidated the optimal alkyl chain pattern of quinones and corresponding hydroquinones and reveal a series of highly potent 5-LO inhibitors with effectiveness in vivo that might be useful as anti-inflammatory drugs.
