Overexpression of PIM 1, 2, and 3 kinases is frequently observed in many malignancies. Previously, we discovered a potent and selective pan-PIM kinase inhibitor, compound 2, currently in phase I clinical trials. In this work, we were interested in replacing the amino group on the cyclohexane ring in compound 2 with a hydroxyl group. Structure-based drug design led to cellularly potent but metabolically unstable tetra-substituted cyclohexyl diols. Efforts on the reduction of Log D by introducing polar heterocycles improved metabolic
