Through scaffold morphing of a known Smoothened antagonist Antag691, a series of novel phenyl imidazole derivatives were developed. Structure-activity-relationship studies and lead optimization led to the discovery of potent, selective and orally bioavailable Smoothened antagonist 19 that is suitable for in vivo studies.
