Title:

Conformationally biased P3 amide replacements of beta-secretase inhibitors.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006 Feb;16(3):641-4. Epub 2005 Nov 2.

Abstract:

We have synthesized and evaluated a series of conformationally biased P3 amide replacements based on an isophthalamide lead structure. The studies resulted in the identification of the beta-secretase inhibitor 7m which has an in vitro IC(50)=35 nM. The synthesis and biological activities of these compounds are described.
