A novel cyclohexenyl series of CCR2 antagonists has been discovered. This series of small, rigid compounds exhibits submicromolar binding affinity for CCR2. Modification of the substituents on the cyclohexene ring led to the identification of potent CCR2 antagonists. Progress from initial lead 5 (IC50 = 700 nM) to (-)-38 (IC50 = 9.0 nM) is discussed.
