Structure-based design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel β-secretase inhibitors containing a pyrazole or thiazole moiety as the P3 ligand
摘要:
We describe structure-based design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of novel inhibitors bearing a pyrazole (compounds 3a-h) or a thiazole moiety (compounds 4a-e) as the P3 ligand. We have also explored Boc-beta-amino-L-alanine as a novel P2 ligand. A number of inhibitors have displayed b-secretase inhibitory potency. Inhibitor 4c has shown potent BACE1 inhibitory activity, K-i = 0.25 nM, cellular EC50 of 194 nM, and displayed good selectivity over BACE2. A model of 4c was created based upon the X-ray structure of 2-bound beta-secretase which revealed critical interactions in the active site. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
