6-amino-4-(pyrimidin-4-yl)pyridones: novel glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2011 Mar 1;21(5):1429-33. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2011.01.017. Epub 2011 Jan 11.

Abstract

The synthesis and structure-activity relationships for a novel series of 6-amino-4-(pyrimidin-4-yl)pyridones derived from a high throughput screening hit are discussed. Optimization of lead matter afforded compounds with good potency, selectivity and central nervous system (CNS) exposure.
