Abstract

A quaternary ammonium betaine 7 is described which shows exceptional potency and selectivity (1.4 to >3 logs) for the α vβ 6 integrin receptor over the other α v integrins as determined in cell adhesion assays. 7 is prepared by remarkably stereoselective methylation, the origins of which are discussed. The chemical, biological, physicochemical, and pharmacokinetic properties of 7 and its docking into α vβ 6 are described along with related analogues.
