摘要:
A series of 114 SIRT inhibitor candidates was assembled using 'click chemistry', by reacting two alkynes bearing 2-anilinobenzamide pharmacophore with 57 azide building blocks in the presence of Cu( I) catalyst. Screening identified two SIRT2-selective inhibitors, which were more SIRT2-selective than AGK2, a known SIRT2 inhibitor. These findings will be useful for further development of SIRT2-selective inhibitors. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
