Abstract
Inhibitors of ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT) have untapped potential as therapeutics targeting obesity and diabetes. We report the first examples of GOAT inhibitors incorporating a triazole linkage as a biostable isosteric replacement for the ester bond in ghrelin and amide bonds in previously reported GOAT inhibitors. These triazole-containing inhibitors exhibit sub-micromolar inhibition of the human isoform of GOAT (hGOAT), and provide a foundation for rapid future chemical diversification and optimization of hGOAT inhibitors.
