Title:

Equipotent activity in both enantiomers of a series of ketopiperazine-based renin inhibitors.

Journal:

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2005 May 2;15(9):2371-4.

Abstract:

We have found that both enantiomeric configurations of the 6-alkoxymethyl-1-aryl-2-piperazinone scaffold display equipotent renin inhibition activity and similar SAR patterns. This enantiomeric flexibility is in contrast to a previously reported 3-alkoxymethyl-4-arylpiperidine scaffold.
