The overactivation of transient receptor potential canonical 3 (TRPC3) is associated with neurodegenerative diseases and hypertension. Pyrazole 3 (Pyr3) is reported as the most selective TRPC3 inhibitor, but it has two inherent structural limitations: (1) the labile ester moiety leads to its rapid hydrolysis to the inactive Pyr8 in vivo, and (2) the alkylating trichloroacrylic amide moiety is known to be toxic. To circumvent these limitations, we designed a series of conformationally restricted Pyr3 analogues and reported that compound 20 maintains high potency and selectivity for human TRPC3 over its closely related TRP channels. It has significantly improved metabolic stability compared with Pyr3 and has a good safety profile. Preliminary evaluation of 20 demonstrated its ability to rescue Aβ-induced neuron damage with similar potency to that of Pyr3 in vitro. Collectively, these results suggest that 20 represents a promising scaffold to potentially ameliorate the symptoms associated with TRPC3-mediated neurological and cardiovascular disorders.

3- and 5-Trifluoromethyl-4-trifluoroacetylpyrazoles (4 and 5) were easily synthesized in excellent yields by reaction of β,β-bis(trifluoroacetyl)vinyl ethers 1, sulfides 2, and -amines 3 with hydrazines.Hydrolysis of these compounds (4 and 5) with aqueous potassium hydroxide gave the corresponding pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids (6 and 7) in high yields.
