Title: Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of 1,2,4-triazole-containing diarylpyrazolyl carboxamide as CB1 cannabinoid receptor-ligand. Author: Seo HJ, Kim MJ, Lee SH, Lee SH, Jung ME, Kim MS, Ahn K, Kim J, Lee J. Journal: Bioorg Med Chem; 2010 Feb; 18(3):1149-62. PubMed ID: 20045337. Abstract: Numerous research groups have been engaged in searching for novel CB1 receptor antagonists, since SR141716A (rimonabant), a CB1 receptor antagonist, proved to be efficacious in human for the treatment of obesity. In the present study, a series of 1,2,4-triazole-containing diarylpyrazolyl carboxamides based on the 1,5-diarylpyrazole template of rimonabant, was synthesized and tested for CB1 receptor binding affinity. The structure-activity relationship studies demonstrated that incorporation of 1,2,4-triazole ring onto the pyrazole scaffold via a methylene linker led to a significant improvement for CB1 receptor binding affinity. Importantly, these analogues also exhibited excellent selectivity for CB1 receptor over CB2 receptor.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
