Abstract:

We describe synthesis and evaluation of a series of cyclic urea derivatives with hydroxylethylamine isostere. Modification of P3, P1, and P2' and combination of SAR display a >100-fold increase in potency with good cellular activity (IC(50)=0.15microM) relative to the previously reported compound 3.
