Popis: Modifications of DPP-4 inhibitor 5, that was discovered by structure based design, are described and structure–activity relationships discussed. With analogue 7k one of the most potent non-covalent inhibitors of DPP-4 reported to date (IC50 = 0.38 nM) was discovered. X-ray structure of inhibitor 7k bound to DPP-4 revealed a hydrogen bonding interaction with Q553. First successful efforts in balancing overall properties, as demonstrated by improved metabolic stability, highlight the potential of this series.
