Abstract: The discovery and structure-activity relationship of 1,2-diarylimidazole piperazine carboxamides bearing polar side chains as potent and selective cholecystokinin 1 receptor (CCK1R) agonists are described. Optimization of this series resulted in the discovery of isopropyl carboxamide 40, a CCK1R agonist with sub-nanomolar functional and binding activity as well as excellent potency in a mouse overnight food intake reduction assay.
