We describe a novel series of imidazopyridine substituted phenylalanines which are potent VLA-4 antagonists. A wide variety of substituents are tolerated as replacements for the pendant 3-pyridyl ring. A clear structure-activity relationship was identifie

A process for the preparation of a class of phenylalanine enamide derivatives is described formula (1) wherein: Ar1 is an optionally substituted aromatic or heteroaromatic group; L2 is a linker group selected from -N(R4)- [where R4 is a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted straight or branched C1-6alkyl group], -CON(R4)-, or -S(O)2N(R4)-; R1 is a carboxylic acid (-CO2H) or a derivative or biostere thereof; R2 is a hydrogen atom or a C1-6alkyl group; Rx, Ry and Rz which may be the same or different is each an atom or group -L1(Alk1)n(R3)v; and the salts, solvates, hydrates and N-oxides thereof; which comprises reacting a compound of formula (2): wherein: Qa is a group -N(R4)H; and the salts, solvates, hydrates and N-oxides thereof; with a compound Ar1W wherein W is a group selected from X1 (wherein X1 is a leaving atom or group), -COX2 (wherein X2 is a halogen atom or a -OH group) or -SO2 X3 (in which X3 is a halogen atom).
