Synthesis and SAR of 4-(pyrazol-3-yl)-pyridines as novel c-jun N-terminal kinase inhibitors.

摘要

The design and synthesis of a novel series of c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitors is described. The development of the 4-(pyrazol-3-yl)-pyridine series was discovered from an earlier pyrimidine series of JNK inhibitors. Through the optimization of the scaffold 2, several potent compounds with good in vivo profiles were discovered.
