Abstract

A series of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors containing 2-fluorophenyl fragment was developed. Inhibition potency of the described compounds ranges from 0.7 to 630.9 nM. 1-(Adamantan-1-ylmethyl)-3-(2-fluorophenyl) urea (3b, IC50 = 0.7 nM) and 1-(adamantan-2-yl)-3-(2-fluorophenyl) urea (3i, IC50 =1.0 nM) were found to be the most potent sEH inhibitors within the described series. Crystal results suggest that potency is probably enhanced by extra hydrogen bond between the fluorine atom and catalytic tyrosine residues.
