ABSTRACT

An encoded combinatorial library based on aryl and biaryl piperidine scaffolds was designed and synthesized. Screening of this library resulted in the discovery of high-nanomolar biaryl piperidine-based MCH1 receptor antagonists. Follow-up optimization using a parallel synthesis provided potent, single digit nanomolar antagonists.
