Abstract:
:We describe here the generation of a lead compound and its optimization studies that led to the identification of a novel GPR119 agonist. Based on a spirocyclic cyclohexane structure reported in our previous work, we identified compound 8 as a lead compound, being guided by ligand-lipophilicity efficiency (LLE), which linked potency and lipophilicity. Subsequent optimization studies of 8 for improvement of solubility afforded representative 21. Compound 21 had no inhibitory activity against six CYP isoforms and showed favorable pharmacokinetic properties and hypoglycemic activity in rats.
