In a search for novel inhibitors of RA-metabolising enzyme inhibitors as potential anti-cancer agents some 1,2-ethandiones, 2-hydroxyethanones and 1-ethylenedioxyethanones based on aryl-substituted 1,2-diphenylethane have been examined. Several of the compounds were weak inhibitors of the non-specific rat liver microsomal P450

Several analogs of gigantol (1) were synthesized to evaluate their effect on the complexes Ca(2+)-calmodulin (CaM) and Ca(2+)-CaM-CaM sensitive phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1). The compounds belong to four structural groups including, 1,2-diphenylethanes (2-11), diphenylmethanes (13-15), 1,3-diphenylpropenones (16-18), and 1,3-diphenylpropanes (20-22). In
