Kinesin spindle protein (KSP) inhibitors. Part 6: Design and synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-4,5-dihydropyrazole amides as potent inhibitors of the mitotic kinesin KSP
文摘
3,5-Diaryl-4,5-dihydropyrazoles were discovered to be potent KSP inhibitors with excellent in vivo potency. These enzyme inhibitors possess desirable physical properties that can be readily modified by incorporation of a weakly basic amine. Careful adjustment of amine basicity was essential for preserving cellular potency in a multidrug resistant cell line while maintaining good aqueous solubility.
