Abstract

The synthesis and SAR for a novel series of pyrrolotriazines as pan-Aurora kinase inhibitors are described. Optimization of the cyclopropane carboxamide terminus of lead compound 1 resulted in analogs with high cellular activity and improved rat PK profiles. Notably, compound 17l demonstrated tumor growth inhibition in a mouse xenograft model.
