Abstract

Late-stage oxidation using liver microsomes was applied to phosphodiesterase 2 inhibitor 1 to reduce its clearance by cytochrome P450 enzymes, introduce renal clearance, and minimize the risk for victim drug-drug interactions. This approach yielded PF-06815189 (2) with improved physicochemical properties and a mixed metabolic profile. This example highlights the importance of C-H diversification methods to drug discovery.
