Employing a virtual screening approach, we identified the pyroglutamide moiety as a nonacid replacement for the cyclohexanecarboxylic acid group which, when coupled to our previously reported conformationally locked tricyclic core, provided potent and selective RORγt inverse agonists. Structure-activity relationship optimization of the pyroglutamide moiety led to the identification of compound 18 as a potent and selective RORγt inverse agonist, albeit with poor aqueous solubility. We took advantage of the tertiary carbinol group in 18 to synthesize a phosphate prodrug, which provided good solubility, excellent exposures in mouse PK studies, and significant efficacy in a mouse model of psoriasis.

The first total synthesis of the 2-formylpyrrole alkaloid hemerocallisamine I is reported. The convergent synthesis features a key Maillard-Type condensation of a complex amine derived from cis-4-hydroxy-l-proline with a dihydropyranone, to directly furnish the 2-formylpyrrole ring system. The absolute configuration of hemerocallisamine I has been revised on the basis of optical rotation data obtained for the synthesized compound.
