- DIHYDROOROTIC ACID DEHYDROGENASE INHIBITOR
-
The present invention provides a novel dihydroorotic acid dehydrogenase inhibitor which is applicable to various diseases. When used as an active ingredient, a compound represented by formula (I): (wherein X represents a halogen atom, R1 represents a hydrogen atom, R2 represents an alkyl group containing 1 to 7 carbon atoms, R3 represents -CHO, and R4 represents -CH2-CH=C(CH3)-R0 (wherein R0 represents an alkyl group containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms which may have a substituent on the terminal carbon and/or on a non-terminal carbon, etc.)), an optical isomer thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof has a high inhibitory effect on dihydroorotic acid dehydrogenase and can be used as an immunosuppressive agent, a therapeutic agent for rheumatism, an anticancer agent, a therapeutic agent for graft rejection, an antiviral agent, an anti-H. pylori agent, a therapeutic agent for diabetes or the like.

- A GENERAL SYNTHETIC METHOD FOR PRENYLATED PHENOLS OF MICROBIAL ORIGIN
-
Prenylated phenols with a fully substituted benzene ring, such as colletochlorins A and B, were synthesized by first prenylating 1,5-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1,4-cyclohexadiene and then effecting the aromatization of the prenylated product.
