title: Synthesis of indolylalkoxyiminoalkylcarboxylates as leukotriene biosynthesis inhibitors.
abstract: A series of substituted indolylalkoxyiminoalkylcarboxylates were found to be potent leukotriene biosynthesis inhibitors. The structure-activity relationships were investigated. Representative potent inhibitors identified were the quinolyl 3a (A-86885) and pyridyl 3b (A-86886) congeners with in vitro IC50s of 21 and 9 nM and in vivo leukotriene inhibition in the rat with oral ED50s of 0.9 and 1.7 mg/kg, respectively.
