Aminoalkoxybenzyl pyrrolidines as novel human urotensin-II receptor antagonists.

ABSTRACT

High throughput screening of the corporate compound collection led to the discovery of a novel series of substituted aminoalkoxybenzyl pyrrolidines as human urotensin-II receptor antagonists. The synthesis, initial structure-activity relationships, and optimization of the initial hit that led to the identification of a truncated sub-series, represented by SB-436811 (1a), are described.
