Abstract

Trabalho Final de Mestrado Integrado, Ciências Farmacêuticas, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Farmácia, 2014More than 15 HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) have been tested in preclinical and clinical studies. However, most of them are not selective of a particular HDAC class or isoform. Due results not only in therapeutic response but also in serious side effects, the development of new and selective HDACi is a priority from a therapeutics point of view. In the present study, we aimed to synthesize a new capping group structure with a quinolinic core in order to increase the selectivity and potency of HDACi. The work consisted on a four step synthesis of 2-iodo-quinolin-8-yl acetate. The products obtained in each step were monitored by Thin Lay...
