Abstract
SAR studies on a series of piperazinebenzenes directed toward the human melanocortin-4 receptor resulted in potent MC4R agonists. Replacement of the triazole moiety of an initial lead 4 by a basic nitrogen baring a lipophilic side-chain increased the binding affinities of these compounds. Analogs bearing an additional hetero-atom in the side-chain possessed good agonist potency. Thus, 11h had a Ki of 11 nM, and 13g exhibited an EC50 of 3.8 nM and a Ki of 6.4 nM.
