Title: Synthesis of 3-alkyl naphthalenes as novel estrogen receptor ligands

Journal Article · · Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett.

A series of estrogen receptor ligands based on a 3-alkyl naphthalene scaffold was synthesized using an intramolecular enolate-alkyne cycloaromatization as the key step. Several of these compounds bearing a C6-OH group were shown to be high affinity ligands. All compounds had similar ER{alpha} and ER{beta} binding affinity ranging from micromolar to low nanomolar.
