    Abstract:
    The continuing investigation of SAR studies of 3-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-N-(5-benzylthiazol-2-yl)-benzamides as stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD-1) inhibitors is reported. Our prior hit-to-lead effort resulted in the identification of 1a as a potent and orally efficacious SCD-1 inhibitor. Further optimization of the structural motif resulted in the identification of 4-ethylamino-3-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-N-[5-(3-trifluoromethylbenzyl)thiazol-2-yl]benzamide (37c) with sub nano molar IC(50) in both murine and human SCD-1 inhibitory assays. This compound demonstrated a dose-dependent decrease in the plasma desaturation index in C57BL/6J mice on a non-fat diet after 7 days of oral administration.
