Abstract

This Letter describes a chemical lead optimization campaign directed at VU0238429, the first M(5)-preferring positive allosteric modulator (PAM), discovered through analog work around VU0119498, a pan G(q) mAChR M(1), M(3), M(5) PAM. An iterative parallel synthesis approach was employed to incorporate basic heterocycles to improve physiochemical properties.
