Abstract :
In our continuing effort to identify CGRP receptor antagonists for the acute treatment of migraine, we have undertaken a study to evaluate alternative 4-substituted piperidines to the lead dihydroquinazolinone 1. In this regard, we have identified the piperidinyl-azabenzimidazolone and phenylimidazolinone structures which, when incorporated into the benzodiazepine core, afford potent CGRP receptor antagonists (e.g., 18 and 29). These studies produced a potent analog (18) which overcomes the instability issues associated with the lead structure 1. A general pharmacophore for the 4-substituted piperidine component of these CGRP receptor antagonists is also presented.
