Abstract

This Letter describes the synthesis and structure-activity relationships (SAR) of isoform-selective PLD inhibitors. By virtue of the installation of a 1,3,8-triazaspiro[4,5]decan-4-one privileged structure, PLD inhibitors with nanomolar potency and an unprecedented 40-fold selectivity for PLD2 over PLD1 were developed. Interestingly, SAR for this diverged from our earlier efforts, and dual PLD1/2 inhibitors were also discovered within this series.
