Piperidine, pyrrolidine, and azetidine sulfonamides were examined as linkers in designing novel human beta(3) adrenergic receptor (beta(3)-AR) agonists. The azetidine derivative 37, and piperidine derivatives 7, 8, and 13 were found to be potent beta(3)-AR agonists and have good selectivity against beta(1)- and beta(2)-AR.

This combination led to the identification of human beta3 adrenoreceptor agonists with in vivo activity in a transgenic mouse model.

Potent and selective agents were identified such as 26 that was in vitro active in CHO cells expressing human beta3-AR (EC50=49 nM, IA=1.1), and in vivo active in a transgenic mouse model.

The preparation and structure-activity relationships (SARs) of potent agonists of the human beta(3)-adrenergic receptor (AR) derived from a 4-aminopiperidine scaffold are described. Examples combine human beta(3)-AR potency with selectivity over human beta(1)-AR and/or human beta(2)-AR agonism. Compound 29s was identified as a potent (EC(50)=1nM) and selective (greater than 400-fold over beta(1)- with no beta(2)-AR agonism) full beta(3)-AR agonist with in vivo activity in a transgenic mouse model of thermogenesis.

A series of novel (4-piperidin-1-yl)-phenyl sulfonamides was prepared and evaluated for their biological activity on the human beta(3)-adrenergic receptor (AR). Replacement of the 3,4-dihydroxyl group of the catechol moiety with 4-hydroxyl-3-methyl sulfonamide on the left-hand side of the compounds resulted in a number of potent full agonists at the beta(3) receptor. Modification of the right-hand side of the compounds by incorporation of a free carboxylic acid resulted in a few potent human beta(3) agonists with low affinities for beta(1)- and beta(2)-ARs.
