Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) represents a relevant drug target for the treatment of neurodegenerative pathologies including Alzheimer's disease. We herein report on the optimization of a novel class of GSK-3β inhibitors based on the tofacitinib-derived screen hit 3-((3<i>R</i>,4<i>R</i>)-3-((7-chloro-9<i>H</i>-pyrimido[4,5-<i>b</i>]indol-4-yl)(methyl)amino)-4-methylpiperidin-1-yl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (<b>1</b>). We synthesized a series of 19 novel 7-chloro-9<i>H</i>-pyrimido[4,5-<i>b</i> ...[more]
