Abstract :
The guanylhydrazone of 2-(4-chlorobenzyloxy)-5-bromobenzaldehyde, 1, with an IC50 of 840 nM against the CCR5 receptor was identified using high-throughput screening. Optimization efforts led to the discovery of a novel piperidine series of CCR5 antagonists. In particular, the 4-hydroxypiperidine derivative, 6k, had improved potency against CCR5, and was a starting point for further optimization. SAR elaboration using parallel synthesis led to the identification of 10h, a potent CCR5 antagonist with an IC50 of 11 nM.
