Abstract
A series of 1-azolyl-4-phenyl-2-butanones was designed and synthesized for the inhibition of heme oxygenases (heme oxygenase-1 and heme oxygenase-2). The replacement of imidazole by other azoles led to the discovery of novel 1H-1,2,4-triazole- and 1H-tetrazole-based inhibitors equipotent to a lead imidazole-based inhibitor. The inhibitors featuring 2H-tetrazole or 1H-1,2,3-triazole as the pharmacophore were less potent. Monosubstitution at position 2 or 4(5), or identical disubstitution at positions 4 and 5 of imidazole by a variety of electron-withdrawing or electron-donating, small or bulky groups, as well as the replacement of the traditional imidazole pharmacophore by an array of 3- or 5-substituted triazoles, identically 3,5-disubstituted triazoles, 5-substituted-1H- and 5-substituted-2H-tetrazoles proved to be detrimental to the inhibition of HO, with a few exceptions. The azole-dioxolanes and the azole-alcohols derived from the active azole-ketones were synthesized also, but these inhibitors were less active than the corresponding imidazole-based analogs. The first reported X-ray crystal structure of human heme oxygenase-1 in complex with a 1,2,4-triazole-based inhibitor, namely 4-phenyl-1-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-2-butanone, was also determined. The inhibitor binds to the human heme oxygenase-1 distal pocket through the coordination of heme iron by the N4 in the triazole moiety, whereas the phenyl group is stabilized by hydrophobic interactions from residues within the binding pocket.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
