Identification of MK-1925: A selective, orally active and brain-penetrable opioid receptor-like 1 (ORL1) antagonist
摘要:
Structure-activity relationship studies directed toward improving the metabolic stability of compound 1 resulted in the identification of 3-[5-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-3-({[(1S,3R)-3-fluorocyclopentyl]amino}methyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]propanenitrile 39 (MK-1925) as a selective, orally available and brain-penetrable opioid receptor-like 1 (ORL1) antagonist. The compound also showed in vivo efficacy after oral dosing. Therefore, compound 39 was selected to undergo further studies as a clinical candidate. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
