A series of C5-substituted 1,2,4-triaryl-1H-imidazoles was synthesized. Their gene-activating properties were determined on estrogen receptor alpha positive MCF-7 breast cancer cells, stably transfected with the plasmid ERE(wtc)luc (MCF-7-2a cells). The influence of 4-OH and 2-Cl substituents on the phenyl rings as well as the significance of a methyl, ethyl, or phenyl group at C5 on the estrogen receptor binding and the resulting gene activation in MCF-7-2a cells was studied. The alkyl and aryl groups at C5 of 1,2,4-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-imidazole 1 increased the transactivation, while chlorine atoms on the phenyl rings diminished this effect. 5-Ethyl-1,2,4-tris(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-imidazole 9 was identified as the most active compound. Its excellent transcriptional activity did not only depend on the C5 ethyl group, but also on the three hydroxyl groups of the phenyl rings. Compounds (11-14) with a reduced number of hydroxyl groups displayed distinctly lower gene activation.
