Biphenyl carboxylic acids, exemplified by compound 5, are known potent inhibitors of diacylglycerol acyltransferase, DGAT1, an enzyme involved in the final committed step of triglyceride biosynthesis. We have synthesized and evaluated 2-phenylthiazole, 4-phenylthiazole, and 5-phenylthiazole analogs as DGAT1 inhibitors. The 5-phenylthiazole series exhibited potent DGAT1 inhibition when evaluated using an in vitro enzymatic assay and an in vivo fat tolerance test in mice.

Diacylglycerol acyltransferase, DGAT1, is a promising target enzyme for obesity due to its involvement in the committed step of triglyceride biosynthesis. Amino biphenyl carboxylic acids, exemplified by compound 4, are known potent inhibitors of hDGAT1. However the high cLogP and poor solubility of these biphenyl analogs might tend to limit their development.

The diacylglycerol acyltransferase enzyme, DGAT1, presents itself as a potential target for obesity as this enzyme is dedicated to the final committed step in triglyceride biosynthesis. Biphenyl ureas, exemplified by compound 4, have been reported to be potent hDGAT1 inhibitors. We have synthesized and evaluated 2-pyridyl and 3-pyridyl containing biaryl ureas as hDGAT1 inhibitors.
