Abstract
A strategy for development of thyroid hormone analogs was examined bas ed on the combinatorial concept. The reaction of ethyl 3,3',5-triiodot hyroacetate (3b) with Cd/Br2CF2/CuBr followed by ester hydrolysis gave a mixture of more than ten products as detected by HPLC. The structur es of the products in the bioactive fractions showed that the replacem ent of iodides with trifluoromethyl groups is an effective approach fo r obtaining thyromimetics.
