摘要:
Scaffold hopping from the amide group of lead compound ONO 7300243 (1) to a secondary alcohol successfully gave a novel chemotype lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (LPA(1)) antagonist 4. Wash-out experiments using rat isolated urethra showed that compound 4 possesses a tight binding feature to the LPAI receptor. Further modification of two phenyl groups of 1 to pyrrole and an indane moiety afforded an optimized compound ONO-0300302 (19). Despite its high i.v. clearance, 19 inhibited significantly an LPA-induced increase of intraurethral pressure (IUP) in rat (3 mg/kg, p.o.) and dog (1 mg/kg, p.o.) over 12 h. Binding experiments with [H-3]-ONO-0300302 suggest that the observed long duration action is because of the slow tight binding character of 19.
