    Abstract:
    The synthesis and structure-activity relationships (SAR) of a series of benzothiophene piperazine and piperidine urea FAAH inhibitors is described. These compounds inhibit FAAH by covalently modifying the enzyme's active site serine nucleophile. Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) revealed that these urea inhibitors were completely selective for FAAH relative to other mammalian serine hydrolases. Several compounds showed in vivo activity in a rat complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) model of inflammatory pain.
