Discovery of substituted 6-pheny-3H-pyridazin-3-one derivatives as novel c-Met kinase inhibitors.

We report a series of phenyl substituted pyridazin-3-ones substituted with morpholino-pyrimidines. The SAR of the phenyl was explored and their c-Met kinase and cell-based inhibitory activity toward c-Met driven cell lines were evaluated. Described herein is a potent c-Met inhibitor by structural modification of the parent morpholino-pyridazinone scaffold, with particular focus on the phenyl and pyrimidine substituents.
