Abstract

Several new potent CGRP receptor antagonists have been prepared in which the amide bond of lead compound 1 has been replaced by bioisosteric imidazole moieties. Substitution at N-1 of the imidazole was optimized to afford compounds with comparable potency to that of lead 1. Conformational restraint of the imidazole to form tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine 43 gave substantially improved permeability.
