N-Cycloalkanoyl-l-Phenylalanine Derivatives as VCAM/VLA-4 Antagonists
摘要:
A systematic structure-activity relationship investigation of the lead compound I resulted the identification of several N-[(substituted alkyl)cycloalkanoyl]-4-[((2,6-dichlorophenyl)carbonyl)amino]-L-phenylalanine derivatives as potent VCAM/VLA-4 antagonists. The data are consistent with a model of these compounds in which these alkanoylphenylalanines reside in a compact gauche (-) bioactive conformation. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
