Abstract
The CB1 receptor belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily. CB1 antagonism has been considered as a new therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity. In this study, we report the synthesis and in vitro binding affinity assay of some 1,5-diarylpyrazole scaffold compounds. The binding results showed that some of the target compounds had an excellent potency toward the CB1 receptor with IC50 values lying at the nanomole level.
