Fig. 2: Structure of EN460 derivatives.

Chemical structures of EN460. Each modified group in EN460 is boxed with a different color. The chemical substitutions of EN460 analogs (I1–14) are indicated and color- boxed. The phenyl of EN460 is depicted in red; analogs I1, I2, I3, I4 and I6 encompass the substitution of this group and are boxed in red. The phenyl-furan moiety of EN460 is depicted in blue, and the designated analogs with substitution of this group (I8-I15) are boxed in blue. The α, β unsaturated double bond is in green, and the analog with substitution of this group (I15) is also boxed in green. The side chain trifluoromethyl of pyrazolone is in purple and the analogs with substitution of this group (I14 and I10) are boxed in purple. Below, boxed in black, are commercially available analogs of EN460 putatively matching its activity profile while presenting a different chemical structure (I17–I23) and I16, a conjugate of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and S-acetyl-β-mercaptoethylamine (SMEA).
