Synthesis of benzoylpyrimidines as antagonists of the corticotropin- releasing factor-1 receptor
A series of benzoylpyrimidines derived from the anilinepyrimidine CRF 1 antagonists were synthesized. Several synthetic routes were developed to explore the SAR of this series of compounds. Compounds such as 8d (Ki=15nM) exhibited high binding affinities at the human CRF 1 receptor.
