Abstract: The synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of heterocyclic analogues of the previously reported LTA(4) hydrolase inhibitor 1b are described. Imidazopyridine and purine analogues are specifically highlighted with several demonstrating excellent potency in our in vitro assays, as well as good oral activity in a mouse ex vivo assay.
