The present study describes the identification via privileged structure-based approach of the benzhydrylpiperazine moiety as a potential scaffold to develop novel CB1 receptor modulators. Efficient structural optimization of the initial four hit compounds led to a high quality lead series, represented by compound 6c. Compound 6c is a highly potent and selective CB1 receptor inverse agonist that is able to reduce body weight in diet-induced obese Sprague-Dawley rats. The preparation of privileged structure-based library, the progression from hit to lead, the structure-activity relationships in the lead series and in vitro and in vivo activity of compound 6c are discussed.

A novel series of compounds derived from the previously reported N-type calcium channel blocker NP118809 (1-(4-benzhydrylpiperazin-1-yl)-3,3-diphenylpropan-1-one) is described. Extensive SAR studies resulted in compounds with IC50 values in the range of 10-150 nM and selectivity over the L-type channels up to nearly 1200-fold. Orally administered compounds 5 and 21 exhibited both anti-allodynic and anti-hyperalgesic activity in the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain.
