Abstract: A series of omega-alkoxy ethers were prepared with variation of the length of the aliphatic chain of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA, vorinostat). Eight carbon long chain analogues showed the best activity, among which several substituted benzyl ether derivatives exhibited inhibitory activity on HDAC comparable to SAHA, and antiproliferative activity on three human cell lines (NB4, H460, and HCT-116) better than SAHA. However, no significant difference in antiproliferative activity was observed between two enantiomers bearing the benzyl ether moiety.
