A series of novel 2-pyridylbenzimidazole derivatives was rationally designed and synthesized based on our previous studies on benzimidazole 14, a CB1 agonist used as a template for optimization. In the present series, 21 compounds displayed high affinities with Ki values in the nanomolar range. JM-39 (compound 39) was the most active of the series (KiCB1 = 0.53 nM), while compounds 31 and 44 exhibited similar affinities to WIN 55212-2. CoMFA analysis was performed based on the biological data obtained and resulted in a statistically significant CoMFA model with high predictive value (q2 = 0.710, r2 = 0.998, r2pred = 0.823).
基于我们之前对用于优化模板的CB1激动剂苯并咪唑14的研究,我们合理设计并合成了一系列新型2-吡啶基苯并咪唑衍生物。在本系列化合物中,21种化合物显示出高亲和力,Ki值在纳摩尔范围内。JM-39(化合物39)是该系列中活性最高的(KiCB1 = 0.53 nM),而化合物31和44显示出与WIN 55212-2相似的亲和力。基于获得的生物学数据进行了CoMFA分析,并得到了一个统计学上显著且具有高度预测价值的CoMFA模型(q2 = 0.710,r2 = 0.998,r2pred = 0.823)。
