Discovery of brain penetrant, soluble, pyrazole amide EP1 receptor antagonists
摘要:
We describe the discovery of a series of pyrazole amide EP1 receptor antagonists with good aqueous solubility and CNS penetration. In order to achieve solubility we investigated the incorporation of a basic group in the region of the molecule previously occupied by a carboxylic acid, which was known to be a key element of the pharmacophore. This study led to the identification of compounds such as 4h, 4j and 10b which demonstrated brain-to-blood ratios of 0.8: 1-2.0: 1 in addition to good solubility and metabolic stability.
