Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of substituted 2,3-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinolin-9-ylamine related compounds as fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase inhibitors

Abstract

In a search for structurally new inhibitors of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (F16BPase), substituted 2,3-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinoline derivatives were synthesized. It has been shown that the 2,3-dihydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]quinoline moiety may represent a suitable scaffold for the synthesis of potent F16BPase inhibitors endowed with significantly lower EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity
