Popis: A potent and selective antagonist of the melanocortin-4 receptor, 1-[2-[(1S)-(3-dimethylaminopropionyl)amino-2-methylpropyl]-6-methylphenyl]-4-[(2R)-methyl-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propionyl]piperazine (10d), was identified from a series piperazinebenzylamine attached with a N,N-dimethyl-beta-alanine side chain. This compound possessed high water solubility and exhibited good metabolic profiles. In animals, 10d showed moderate to good oral bioavailability and promoted food intake in tumor-bearing mice after oral administration.
