Abstract

The disclosure relates to compounds of formula (I), which are formyl peptide 2 (FPR2) receptor agonists and/or formyl peptide 1 (FPR1) receptor agonists. The disclosure also provides compositions and methods of using the compounds, for example, for the treatment of atherosclerosis, heart failure, and related diseases.

Claims (18)

1. A compound of formula I

where:

R 1 is absent, Ar 3 , cycloalkyl substituted with 0-2 halo and 0-1 Ar 4 substituents, or ((Ar 5 )alkyl)(H)NCO;

R 2 is hydrogen, alkyl, or CH 2 CO 2 H;

Ar 1 is isoxazolyl, oxadiazolyl, thiadiazolyl, benzoisoxazolyl, isoxazolopyridinyl, or benzooxazolyl, and is substituted with 0-2 halo, alkyl, alkoxy, fluoroalkyl, or fluoroalkoxy substituents;

Ar 2 is phenyl, pyridinyl, or pyridazinyl, and is substituted with 1 alkoxy, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy substituent in the 4-position and 0-2 additional halo substituents;

Ar 3 is phenyl, pyridinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidinyl, or pyrazinyl, and is substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, (cycloalkyl)alkoxy, haloalkoxy, OAr 6 , alkylthio, haloalkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, haloalkylsulfinyl, and pyrazolyl;

Ar 4 is phenyl or pyridinyl substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, and haloalkoxy;

Ar 5 is phenyl or pyridinyl substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, and haloalkoxy; and

Ar 6 is phenyl, pyridinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidinyl, or pyrazinyl, and is substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, and haloalkoxy;

Provided when Ar 1 is oxadiazolyl or thiadiazolyl, Ar 1 is substituted with 0-1 halo, alkyl, alkoxy, fluoroalkyl, or fluoroalkoxy substituent;

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2. A compound of claim 1 where R 1 is Ar 3 ; R 2 is hydrogen; Ar 1 is oxadiazolyl or thiadiazolyl, and is substituted with 0-1 halo, alkyl, alkoxy, fluoroalkyl, or fluoroalkoxy substituent; Ar 2 is phenyl substituted with 1 alkoxy, halo, haloalkyl or haloalkoxy substituent in the 4-position and 0-2 additional halo substituents; Ar 3 is phenyl or pyridinyl and is substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, (cycloalkyl)alkoxy, haloalkoxy, OAr 6 , alkylthio, haloalkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, haloalkylsulfinyl, and pyrazolyl; and Ar 6 is phenyl, pyridinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidinyl, or pyrazinyl, and is substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, alkoxy, and haloalkoxy; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

3. A compound of claim 1 where R 1 is Ar 3 .

4. A compound of claim 1 where R 2 is hydrogen.

5. A compound of claim 1 where Ar 1 is oxadiazolyl or thiadiazolyl, and is substituted with 0-1 halo, alkyl, alkoxy, fluoroalkyl, or fluoroalkoxy substituent; Ar 2 is phenyl substituted with 1 alkoxy substituent in the 4-position and 0-2 additional halo substituents.

6. A compound of claim 1 where Ar 3 is phenyl or pyridinyl and is substituted with 0-3 substituents selected from cyano, halo, alkyl, haloalkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, (cycloalkyl)alkoxy, haloalkoxy, OAr 6 , alkylthio, haloalkylthio, alkylsulfinyl, haloalkylsulfinyl, and pyrazolyl.

7. A composition comprising a compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.
