Over the past few years, many pyrazole fused-ring systems, especially with applications in medicinal chemistry, have been published. These include general structures such as pyrazoline, pyrazoline, pyrazoquinoline, pyrazoloisoquinoline, pyrazoline, pyrazolopyrazine, pyrazolopyrazine, pyranopyrazole, pyrano Pyrazoles, pyrazolotriazines and pyrazole fused phosphorus rings.
The use of azepane as a scaffold for drug discovery remains of interest. The azepane linker is the key to efficient activity. A number of seven-membered ring derivatives have been prepared or investigated for their potential or actual pharmacological properties. Examples include azaalkane derivatives as PKB (protein kinase B) inhibitors.
