    A substituted 4-aminopiperidine was identified as showing activity in an MCH assay from an HTS effort. Subsequent structural modification of the scaffold led to the identification of a number of active MCH antagonists. 3,5-Dimethoxy-N-(1-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl)benzamide (5c) was among those with the highest binding affinity to the MCH receptor (K(i)=27nM), when variations were made at benzoyl and naphthylmethyl substitution sites from the initial HTS hit. Further optimization via piperidine ring contraction resulted in enhanced MCH activity in a 3-aminopyrrolidine series, where (R)-3,5-dimethoxy-N-(1-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)-pyrrolidin-3-yl)benzamide (10i) was found to be an excellent MCH antagonist (K(i)=7nM).
