✦ Synopsis


A new series of 2,3-diarylpyrroles have been prepared and evaluated as CB 1 antagonists. Modulation of the topological polar surface area allowed the identification of high affinity peripherally-restricted CB 1 antagonists. Compound 11, obtained after further optimization of the metabolic profile displayed very low brain penetration, yet was able to reverse CP55940-induced gastrointestinal transit inhibition following oral administration.
