Discovery of 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines as potent dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs).

Abstract:

:Compound rac-1 was identified by high throughput screening. Here we report SAR studies and MedChem optimization towards the highly potent dual orexin receptor antagonists (S)-2 and (S)-3. Furthermore, strategies to overcome the suboptimal physicochemical properties are highlighted and the pharmacokinetic profiles of representative compounds is presented.

  • Design and synthesis of novel delta opioid receptor agonists and their pharmacologies.

    abstract::We re-examined the accessory site of the 4,5-epoxymorphinan skeleton by camdas conformational analysis in an effort to deign novel delta opioid receptor antagonists. We synthesized three novel compounds (SN-11, 23 and 28) with a 10-methylene bridge and without a 4,5-epoxy ring. Among them, compounds SN-23 (17-isobutyl...
