Abstract

A series of 5-N,N-disubstituted-5-aminopyrazole-3-carboxylic acids were prepared and found to act as highly potent and selective agonists of the G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) GPR109b, a low affinity receptor for niacin and some aromatic d-amino acids. Little activity was observed at the highly homologous higher affinity niacin receptor, GPR109a.
