Pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines containing diverse N-7 substituents as potent inhibitors of Lck

A series of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines was synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of Lck. Lck accommodates a diverse set of substituents at N-7. Altering the substituent at N-7 provided compound 13, an orally available lck inhibitor which inhibited TCR mediated IL-2 production after oral dosing.
