Doramapimod (BIRB 796) is a potent inhibitor of p38α mitogen-activated protein kinase. It contains an aryl-pyrazole scaffold as a pharmacophore critical for binding. The aryl-pyrazole scaffold is not planar and adopts an out-of-plane conformation, which is described by the torsion angle θ. In this letter, we report the chemical synthesis and biophysical characterization of different analogues of doramapimod (3-12) exhibiting distinctly different aryl-pyrazole torsion angle θ values. The torsion angle θ values of the synthesized analogues (3-6) were determined by crystal structural analysis and the binding affinities to p38α kinase investigated by microscale thermophoresis. Our results unveil a clear correlation between kinase binding and the torsion angle θ of tested doramapimod analogues, highlighting the importance of inhibitor conformation for protein binding.
