We have examined the pyrazolo [1, 5-a] pyrimidine scaffold as a novel core structure for estrogen receptor ligands. Attachment of various substituents has helped to define the orientation of this heterocycle in the ligand-binding pocket as one in which a pendant phenol rather than the hydroxylpyrimidine serves as a mimic of the A-ring of estradiol.
