An HTS campaign led to the identification of 4-pyrroldino-2-(pyridin-2-yl) pyrimidine compound 1 as an RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis inhibitor. The compound 1 showed high clearance values in microsomes, however. Modification of the pyrrolidino group to a benzylamino group improved human microsomal stability with a slight loss of in vitro activity. Substitution at the ortho position of the benzyl group ameliorated in vitro activity, and further fluorination of the benzyl group improved microsomal stability in rodents. Representative members of this series, compounds 20 and 23, exhibited efficacy in RANKL-induced osteopenic mice when administered orally at 0.3 mg/kg.
