Abstract: We report on selectivity profiling of 1 in a panel of 20 protein kinases and molecular modeling indicating 1 to be highly active and selective for VEGF-R2/3. Sequence alignment analysis and detailed insights into the ATP binding pockets of targeted protein kinases from the panel result in a unique structural architecture of VEGF-R2 mainly caused by the hydrophobic pocket I, determining the molecular basis for activity and selectivity of 1.
