The free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2), also known as GPR43, mediates effects of short-chain fatty acids and has attracted interest as a potential target for treatment of various metabolic and inflammatory diseases. Herein, we report the results from bioisosteric replacement of the carboxylic acid group of the established FFA2 antagonist CATPB and SAR investigations around these compounds, leading to the discovery of the first high potency FFA2 antagonists, with the preferred compound TUG 2304 (16l) featuring IC50 values of 3-4 nM in both cAMP and GTP gamma S assays, favorable physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties, and the ability to completely inhibit propionate induced neutrophil migration and respiratory burst.
