Jp. Edwards et al., NEW NONSTEROIDAL ANDROGEN RECEPTOR MODULATORS BASED ON 4(TRIFLUOROMETHYL)-2 (1H)-PYRROLIDINO[3,2-G] QUINOLINONE, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 8(7), 1998, pp. 745-750
A series of 2(1H)-pyrrolidino [3,2-g]quinolinones was prepared and tes
ted for the ability to modulate the transcriptional activity of the hu
man androgen receptor (hAR). The parent compound, fluoromethyl)-2(1H)-
pyrrolidino[3,2-g]quinolinone, displayed moderate interaction with hAR
, but more substituted analogues, particularly 6,7-disubstituted compo
unds, were potent hAR agonists in vitro. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd
