The further evolution of the imidazole-5-acrylic acid series of nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonists is detailed (for Part 1, see: J.Med.Chem. 1992, 35, 3858).Modifications of the N-benzyl ring substitution were undertaken in an effort to mimic the Tyr4 residue of angiotensin II.Introduction of a p-carboxylic acid on the N-benzyl ring resulted in the discovery of compounds with nanomolar affinity for the receptor and good oral activity.SAR studies of these potent antagonists revealed that the thienyl ring, the (E)-acrylic acid, and the imidazole ring in addition to the two acid groups were important for high potency.Also, overlay comparisons of the parent diacid with both angiotensin II and a representative biphenylyltetrazole nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist are presented.The parent diacid analog, SKF 108566 or (E)-3--2-propenoic acid, is currently in clinical development for the treatment of hypertension.
Imidazole-5-acrylic Acids: Potent Nonpeptide Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists Designed Using a Novel Peptide Pharmacophore Model

A series a novel nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonists containing a substituted (E)-acrylic acid has been developed.The overlay of 1, an imidazole-5-acetic acid found in the patent literature, on a novel pharmacophore model of AII suggested that extension of the acid side chain and attachment of a second aryl residue to mimic the C-terminal phenylalanine region of AII would lead to increased activity.A study of extended acid side chains at C-5 of the imidazole nucleus led to the discovery of the (E)-acrylic acid 5 as a promising starting point for further exploration.As predicted by the modeling, substitution of a benzyl group on the acrylic acid side chain to mimic the phenylalanine gave increased potency.An extensive study of the SAR of the newly introduced aromatic ring revealed that electron-rich heteroaryl rings provided improved activity, most notably in the in vivo rat models.Compound 40, (E)-3-imidazol-5-yl>-2--2-propenoic acid, has been shown to be a potent, competitive, and orally active small molecule AT-1 receptor antagonist.It exhibits a 2 orders of magnitude increase in binding affinity and a 10-fold improvement in in vivo potency as compared to compound 1 and represents an important milestone in the development of even more potent nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonists.
