Abstract

The discovery of novel CB2 ligands based on the 3-carbamoyl-2-pyridone derivatives by adjusting the size of side chain at 1-, 5- and 6-position is reported. The structure-activity relationship around this template lead to the identification of S-777469 as a selective CB2 receptor agonist, which exhibited the significant inhibition of scratching induced by Compound 48/80 at 1.0 mg/kg po and 10 mg/kg po (55% and 61%, respectively).
