The colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) is an attractive target for inflammation disorders and cancers. Based on a series of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine containing two carbo-aromatic rings, we have searched for new CSF1R inhibitors having a higher fraction of sp3-atoms. The phenyl unit in the 4-amino group could efficiently be replaced by tetrahydropyran (THP) retaining inhibitor potency. Exchanging the 6-aryl group with cyclohex-2-ene units also resulted in highly potent compounds, while fully saturated ring systems at C-6 led to a loss of activity. The structure-activity relationship study evaluating THP containing pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivates identified several highly active inhibitors by enzymatic studies. A comparison of 11 pairs of THP and aromatic compounds showed that inhibitors containing THP had clear benefits in terms of enzymatic potency, solubility, and cell toxicity. Guided by cellular experiments in Ba/F3 cells, five CSF1R inhibitors were further profiled in ADME assays, indicating the para-aniline derivative 16t as the most attractive compound for further development.
