Herein we report the identification of two new fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor lead series with FAAH k(inact)/K(i) potency values greater than 1500 M (1) s (1). The two novel spirocyclic cores, 7-azaspiro[3.5]nonane and 1-oxa-8-azaspiro[4.5]decane, clearly distinguished themselves from the other spirocyclic cores on the basis of their superior potency for FAAH. Lead compounds from these two series have suitable FAAH potency and selectivity for additional medicinal chemistry optimization. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
