Abstract

Two classes of piperazinone-containing thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines were designed and synthesized as new PI3Kδ inhibitors in this study. Detailed SAR study with respect to the piperazinone substituents at the 6-position of thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine core demonstrated that piperazinone-containing thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidines would be more potent and selective for PI3Kδ than their piperazine counterparts, which led to the discovery of several potent PI3Kδ inhibitors with comparable or better antiproliferative activity against a panel of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cell lines as compared with idelalisib. Our study will promote the development of new PI3Kδ inhibitors based on piperazinone-containing thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine scaffold.
