Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006 Jul 15;16(14):3859-63. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.04.031. Epub 2006 May 8.

Abstract

A series of novel cyclobutane derivatives as potent and selective NK1 receptor antagonists is described. Several compounds in this series exhibited high in vitro binding affinity (Ki <or=1 nM), and potent inhibition of central NK1 receptor following oral administration. Syntheses of these compounds are also described herein.
