Abstract

This Letter describes a chemical lead optimization campaign directed at VU0119498, a pan Gq mAChR M1, M3, M5 positive allosteric modulator (PAM) with the goal of developing a selective M1 PAM. An iterative library synthesis approach delivered a potent (M1 EC50 = 830 nM) and highly selective M1 PAM (>30 μM vs M2-M5).
