Abstract :
Structure–activity studies of 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine 1 have resulted in the discovery of potent CDK1/CDK2 selective inhibitor 21h, BMS-265246 (CDK1/cycB IC50=6 nM, CDK2/cycE IC50=9 nM). The 2,6-difluorophenyl substitution was critical for potent inhibitory activity. A solid state structure of 21j, a close di-fluoro analogue, bound to CDK2 shows the inhibitor resides coincident with the ATP purine binding site and forms important H-bonds with Leu83 on the protein backbone.
