Discovery, synthesis and characterization of a series of (1-alkyl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-(5-aryl-2H-tetrazol-2-yl)acetamides as novel GIRK1/2 potassium channel activators
摘要:
The present study describes the discovery and characterization of a series of 5-aryl-2H-tetrazol-3-ylacetamides as G protein-gated inwardly-rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels activators. Working from an initial hit discovered during a high-throughput screening campaign, we identified a tetrazole scaffold that shifts away from the previously reported urea-based scaffolds while remaining effective GIRK1/2 channel activators. In addition, we evaluated the compounds in Tier 1 DMPK assays and have identified a (3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)tetrahydrothiophene-1,1-dioxide head group that imparts interesting and unexpected microsomal stability compared to previously-reported pyrazole head groups.
