Abstract

A series of 6-aryl-1, 2-dihydro-2, 2, 4-trimethylquinolines was synthesized and tested for functional activity on the human progesterone receptor isoform B (hPR-B) in mammalian (CV- 1) cells. The lead compound LG001447 (1, 2-dihydro-2, 2, 4-trimethyl-6-phenylquinoline) was discovered via directed high throughput screening of a defined chemical library utilizing an hPR-B cotransfection assay. Electron-withdrawing substituents at the meta position of ...
