6RFI, 6RFJ - PubMed Abstract: 
In this article, we report the discovery of a series of 5-azaquinazolines as selective IRAK4 inhibitors. From modestly potent quinazoline 4 , we introduced a 5-aza substitution to mask the 4-NH hydrogen bond donor (HBD). This allowed us to substitute the core with a 2-aminopyrazole, which showed large gains in cellular potency despite the additional formal HBD ...
