A detailed study directed towards metabolic stability optimization of the alkoxy substituents on the catechol moiety of CDP-840 is reported. Replacement of the methoxy and cyclopentyloxy substituents by cyclobutyloxy and/or difluromethoxy groups resulted in the discovery of potent and selective PDE4 inhibitors where the formation of reactive metabolites that could covalently bind to microsomal protein was significantly reduced or eliminated.

A detailed SAR study directed toward the optimization of pharmacokinetic parameters for analogues of L-791,943 is reported. The introduction of a soft metabolic site on this structure permitted the identification of L-826,141 as a potent phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitor that is well absorbed and that presents a shorter half-life than L-791,943 in a variety of animal species. The efficacy of L-826,141 is also demonstrated in different in vivo models.
