Abstract
The discovery and structure–activity relationship of 1,2-diarylimidazole piperazine carboxamides bearing polar side chains as potent and selective cholecystokinin 1 receptor (CCK1R) agonists are described. Optimization of this series resulted in the discovery of isopropyl carboxamide 40, a CCK1R agonist with sub-nanomolar functional and binding activity as well as excellent potency in a mouse overnight food intake reduction assay.
Graphical abstractThe synthesis and biological profile of imidazole carboxamides of general structure 6 as potent and selective cholecystokinin 1 receptor (CCK1R) agonists are described.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
