Popis: In medicinal chemistry for the purpose of lead optimization, hit selection of new isofunctional chemotypes are crucial for the success of identifying novel chemical entities of increased potency. Using fragment-based design approach with the N-selective inhibitor RXP407, a novel phosphinic peptide scaffold that consisted of modified RXP407 fragments was generated. The presented synthetic route is straightforward and produces the desired product Z-RXP407 in moderate yield. The (S,R,S,S)-Z-RXP407 analog has been evaluated for the C- and N-domain constructs of angiotensin-converting enzyme. The potency of this analog has been much lower compared to the parent compound RXP407, providing thus valuable insights regarding further design based on structure–activity relationships.
