    Modeling studies of a furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine GSK-3 hit compound 1 superimposed onto the X-ray crystal structure of a legacy pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridazine GSK-3 inhibitor 2 led to the identification of 4-acylamino-6-arylfuro[2,3-d]pyrimidine template 3. Synthesis of analogues based on template 3 has resulted in a number of potent and selective GSK-3beta inhibitors. The most potent and selective compound was the m-pyridyl analogue 24.
