A novel series of N-pyridyl amides as potent p38α kinase inhibitors is described. Based on the structural similarities between the initial hit and a well-known imidazole pyrimidine series of p38α inhibitors, potencies within the newly discovered series were quickly improved by installation of an (S)-α-methylbenzyl moiety at the 2-position of the pyridine ring. The proposed binding modes of the new series to p38α were evaluated against SAR findings and provided rationale for further development of this series of molecules.
