Resumo

Focussed studies on imidazopyridine inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase (PfPKG) have significantly advanced the series towards desirable in vitro property space. LLE-based approaches towards combining improvements in cell potency, key physicochemical parameters and structural novelty are described, and a structure-based design hypothesis relating to substituent regiochemistry has directed efforts towards key examples with well-balanced potency, ADME and kinase selectivity profiles.
