In our program to discover non-nucleoside, small molecule inhibitors of genotype 1 HCV polymerase, we investigated a series of promising analogs based on a benzothiadiazine screening hit that contains an ABCD ring system. After demonstrating that a methylsulfonylamino D-ring substituent increased the enzyme potency into the low nanomolar range, we explored a minimum core required for activity by truncating to a three-ring system. Described herein are the syntheses and structure-activity relationship of a set of inhibitors lacking the A-ring of an ABCD ring system. We observed that small aromatic rings and alkenyl groups appended to the 5-position of the B-ring were optimal, resulting in inhibitors with low nanomolar potencies. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

Compounds are disclosed that are effective in inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase, an enzyme responsible for catabolism of endogenous cannabinoids such as anandamide. The compounds are useful as analgesic compounds and as sleep-inducing compounds, that can be orally administered, and that can have a relatively long duration of effect. Methods of preparation of the compounds are also provided. The compounds are conformationally constrained analogs of heterocyclylketones such as oxazolylketones.
