pubmed:abstractText
Aurora kinases are cell cycle regulated serine/threonine kinases that have been linked to cancer. Compound 1 was identified as a potent Aurora inhibitor but lacked oral bioavailability. Optimization of 1 led to the discovery of a series of fluoroamine and deuterated analogues, exemplified by compound 25, with an improved pharmacokinetic profile. We found that blocking oxidative metabolism at the benzylic position and decreasing the basicity of the amine are important to obtaining compounds with good biological profiles and oral bioavailability.
