Abstract

A novel series of cyclohexanamine derivatives was designed and synthesized as potent and selective human neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor antagonists. Modification of high-throughput screening hit compound 1 resulted in the identification of compound 3i, which displays potent Y1 activity and good selectivity towards hERG K(+) channel and serotonin transporter.
