4-Aryl-2-anilinopyrimidines as corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) antagonists

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1999 Apr 5;9(7):1057-62. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(99)00132-8.

Abstract

A series of 4-aryl-2-(N-ethylanilino)pyrimidines has been synthesized as corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) inhibitors. The effect of substitution on each aromatic ring on receptor binding was investigated.
