Synthesis and biological activity of 2H-quinolizin-2-one based p38α MAP kinase inhibitors

The development and synthesis of potent p38α MAP kinase inhibitors containing a 2H-quinolizin-2-one platform is described. Evolution of the 2H-quinolizin-2-one series from an early lead to solving off target activity and pharmacokinetic issues is also discussed.
