摘要:
The present invention relates to novel derivatives of 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, 3-HANA, of the general formula I ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different and selected from H, alkyl, aryl and arylalkyl; X and Y are the same or different and selected from alkoxy, aryloxy, alkyl, alkylthio, arylthio, fluoroalkyl, halogen, cyano, OSO.sub.2 CH.sub.3, OSO.sub.2 CF.sub.3, OCF.sub.3 and SCF.sub.3 with the proviso that the compound of formula I wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 =H, X=Br and Y=Me is excluded;or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, methods and intermediates for their preparation, novel pharmaceutical compositions and the use thereof for inhibiting the enzyme 3-hydroxyanthranilate oxygenase, 3-HAO, responsible for the production of the endogenous neurotoxin quinolinic acid, QUIN.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a photolabile compound including a coumarin family caging group covalently bound to an organic moiety containing a carboxyl group, an amino group, a sulfhydryl group, and/or a hydroxyl group. The photolabile compound, upon absorbing visible light, releases the organic moiety. Also disclosed is a method of making a photolabile compound that releases a biologically active compound upon absorbing visible light by providing an organic moiety and binding a coumarin family caging group to the organic moiety under conditions effective to make the photolabile compound. The present invention also relates to a method of obtaining a biologically active compound in a sample. The method involves adding to a sample a photolabile compound including a coumarin family caging group covalently bound to an organic moiety. The sample is then illuminated with visible light under conditions effective to obtain a biologically active compound including the organic moiety.
摘要:
Caged carboxyl compounds in which a 2-alkoxy-5-nitrophenyl photosensitive group blocks a carboxyl function are disclosed. Preferably the compounds are neuroactive amino acids. The compounds are photolyzable by laser pulses at wavelengths above about nm within about 3 .mu.s and provide a product quantum yield of greater than about 0.2.
