Abstract

A novel prodrug strategy for cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor JNJ-7706621 has been explored. Through N-acylation of a sulfonamide substituent, tails containing different solubilizing groups (amino, carboxyl, alkoxyl, and hydroxyl) were attached to JNJ-7706621. Most of the prodrugs exhibited good aqueous solubility and the N-acyl groups on the sulfonamide were metabolically cleaved to generate active drug in rat PK study.
