The Discovery of 4-{1-[({2,5-Dimethyl-4-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-3-thienyl}carbonyl)amino]cyclopropyl}benzoic Acid (MK-2894), A Potent and Selective Prostaglandin E2 Subtype 4 Receptor Antagonist
摘要:
The discovery of highly potent and selective second generation EP4 antagonist MK-2894 (34d) is discussed. This compound exhibits favorable pharmacokinetic profile in a number of preclinical species and potent anti-inflammatory activity in several animal models of pain/inflammation. It also shows favorable GI tolerability profile in rats when compared to traditional NSAID indomethacin.

A versatile protocol for solid phase synthesis of highly substituted thiophene derivatives and their activity against the PDE-4 enzyme are discussed. This protocol employs 3-hydroxymethylthiophene-2-boronic acid (5) as the scaffold and sequential palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions as the C-C bond forming step. This methodology allows convenient modification of the thiophene core from three directions, giving rise to structurally diverse derivatives with overall high chemical purity and yield. A novel series of potent PDE-4 inhibitors have been identified from these compounds. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
