The design, synthesis and structure-activity relationships of a novel class of N-phenylpyridone MCH1R antagonists are described. The core part of the N-phenylpyridone structure was newly designed and the side chain moieties that were attached to the core part were extensively explored. As a result of optimization of the N-phenylpyridone leads, we successfully developed the orally available, and brain-penetrable MCH1R selective antagonist 7c, exhibiting excellent anti-obese effect in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice.
