The synthesis of two rigidified phenylglycine analogues is disclosed. The cyclic analogue 1 of (R,S)-α-methyl-4-phosphonophenylglycine (MPPG) is shown to be a particularly interesting pharmacological tool, for it is a group II selective mGluR antagonist that possesses an inverse agonist-like action.

A series of substituted tricyclic 4,4-dimethyl-3,4-dihydrochromeno[3,4-d]imidazole derivatives have been synthesized and their mPGES-1 biological activity has been disclosed in detail. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) optimization provided inhibitors with excellent mPGES-1 potency and low to moderate PGE2 release A549 cell potency. Among the mPGES-1 inhibitors studied, 7, 9 and 11l provided excellent selectivity over COX-2 (>200-fold) and >70-fold selectivity for COX-1 except 11l, which exhibited dual mPGES-1/COX-1 activity. Furthermore, the above tested mPGES-1 inhibitors demonstrated good metabolic stability in liver microsomes, high plasma protein binding (PPB) and no significant inhibition observed in clinically relevant CYP isoforms. Besides, selected mPGES-1 tool compounds 9 and 11l provided good in vivo pharmacokinetic profile and oral bioavailability (%F?=?33 and 85). Additionally, the representative mPGES-1 tool compounds 9 and 11l revealed moderate in vivo efficacy in the LPS-induced thermal hyperalgesia guinea pig pain model.

The present invention relates to tricyclic compounds of formula (I) or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as mPGES-1 inhibitors. These compounds are inhibitors of the microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) enzyme and are therefore useful in the treatment of pain and/or inflammation from a variety of diseases or conditions, such as asthama, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, acute or chronic pain and neurodegenerative diseases.
