The key feature of combinatorial chemistry is that the synthesis be designed to produce a range of analogs under similar reaction conditions. The majority of libraries described to date have used a solid support matrix for multiple-step syntheses. In this way the bench chemist can prepare large numbers of drug-like compounds for their use in various screening protocols in a time and resource effective manner. The main objective of this research proposal is to develop technologies for the discovery of PTP inhibitors as novel therapeutic drugs and to discover electroluminescent materials in application for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using combinatorial solid phase synthetic approach. Specific aims are: A. Rational design and synthesis of selective PTP inhibitors: 1. To identify the critical structural requirements of selective inhibitors of PTP1B, CD45, and cdc25 and to construct inhibitors that possess significant affinity for the active site as well as binding site of the particular receptor and to achieve desired activity through structure-function analysis. 2. To apply present, and also formulate new methodologies of combinatorial solid phase synthesis to prepare proposed PTP inhibitors. 3. To generate several new low molecular weight lead compounds as PTP inhibitors that are targeted selectively to specific receptors. B. Biological evaluation of PTP inhibitors: 1. To evaluate the activities of the synthesized inhibitors and correlate their biological properties with different receptors in order to design potent and selective inhibitors. 2. To compile useful structure-activity relationship data of interactions between PTP inhibitor and specific receptor. 3. To prepare a new generation of PTP inhibitors based on combinatorial synthesis using a rational combinatorial drug design approach, molecular modeling and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) studies C. Discovery of new phosphorescent emitters: 1. To design and synthesize electroluminescent organometallic materials in application for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using combinatorial approach. 2. To evaluate the electroluminescent properties of the identified hits. 研究期間:9808 ~ 9907
