Abstract
The synthesis and SAR of 4-methoxy-3-(piperidin-4-yl) benzamides identified after a high-throughput screen of the MLPCN library is reported. SAR was explored around the 3-piperidine substituent as well as the amide functionality of the reported compounds. Starting from the initial lead compounds, 1-7, iterative medicinal chemistry efforts led to the identification of ML352 (10m). ML352 represents a potent and selective inhibitor of CHT based on a drug-like scaffold.
