Chalcones 유도체들을 합성하고 farnesyl protein transferase(FPTase) 저해활성을 측정하여, 기질분자의 치환기 변화에 따른 구조와 활성과의관계(SAR)를 Free-Wilson법과 Hansch법으로 검토하였다. Benzoyl group 중 X-치환기가 styryl중 Y-치환기보다 활성에 더욱 큰 영향을 미쳤으며 meta- > ortho-, para-치환기의 순으로 활성을 나타내었다. 또한, X및 Y-치환기의 소수성이 적정값$(({Sigma}logP)_{opt};=;3.915)$에 근접할수록 활성이 증가 하였으며, X-치환기의 입체효과와(Es > O) 전자밀게 Y-치환기에 의한 공명효과(R < O)가 활성에 미치는 중요한 요소로 인식되었다. 다루어진 화합물중에서 비 치환체, 8은 가장 높은 FPTase저해활성$(pl_{50};=;4.30)$을 나타내었다. 그리고 기질 수용체간의 상호작용을 가정하여 제안하였다.
Inhibition activities$(pI_{50})$ of chalcone derivatives as substrate with farnesyl protein transferase(FPTase) were determined in vitro. The structure activity relationships(SAR) between the activity and physicochemical parameters of X & Y-substituents on the phenyl groups were analyzed by Free-Wilson and Hansch method. X-substituents on the benzoyl group have the more important role to inhibition activity than Y-substituents on the styryl group. Among them, none substituent, 8 showed the highest FPTase inhibition activity$(pI_{50}=4.30)$. Particularly, the SAR equation could be formulated, showing a parabolic relationship between the activity and hydrophobicity(logP) where the optimal value$({Sigma}logP)_{opt}$ was 3.915. And also the activity depends on the steric effect(Es > 0) with X-substituent and the resonance effect(R < 0) with electron donating Y-substituents. Based on the results of SAR analyses, the interactions between substrates and receptor, FPTase, could be assumed.
