Lactams as prostanoid receptor ligands. Part 4: 2-Piperidones as selective EP4 receptor agonists
摘要:
2-Piperidones were prepared bearing heptanoic acid or a thioether heptanoic acid at the I-position as well as appropriately substituted at the 6-position to mimic the structure of prostaglandins. The stereochemical purity at the 6-position was determined to be >= 95% ee for an advanced synthetic intermediate. The 2-piperidones were identified as potent agonists at the EP4 prostanoid receptor. They displayed a high affinity (K-i 5-130 nM) at EP4 and subtype selectivity. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
