Benzoyloxy benzophenone derivatives were prepared in 3 steps including DCC coupling, Fries rearrangement and esterification from benzoic acids in 24-89% total yields. Among the prepared 12 benzophenone analogues 1a-1l, the compound 1b having three chloro groups at the para position showed maximum inhibitory effects of ICAM-1 expression but, 1a which have no substituents at all showed no inhibitory activity. This study provides the evidences that benzoyloxy benzophenone derivative, 1b may exert its anti-inflammatory activity by suppressing IFN--induced ICAM-1 expression. |
