Synthesis of N-arylindazole-3-carboxamide and N-benzoylindazole derivatives and their evaluation against α-MSH-stimulated melanogenesis.

Abstract:

:We have designed and synthesized twenty-six N-arylindazole-3-carboxamide (3a-p) and N-benzoylindazole (6a-j) derivatives to discover with excellent inhibition activities of α-MSH-stimulated melanogenesis. In the bio evaluation studies of these compounds, we discovered eighteen compounds, out of twenty-six exhibited more potent inhibition than the positive control arbutin. From the SAR studies, we identified 3k and 6g as lead compounds which displayed almost 5 and 9 times more potent inhibition of α-MSH-stimulated melanogenesis respectively than the reference arbutin. It is also evident the presence of electron withdrawing group at para position (R3) for the compounds (3a-p) and presence of +M group at ortho position (R5) for the compounds (6a-j) were crucial for their excellent inhibition activities of α-MSH-stimulated melanogenesis.
