Ketopiperazine-based renin inhibitors: optimization of the "C" ring.
A systematic investigation of the S3 sub-pocket activity requirements was conducted. It was observed that linear and sterically small side chain substituents are preferred in the S3 sub-pocket for optimal renin inhibition. Polar groups in the S3-sub-pocket were not well tolerated and caused a reduction in renin inhibitory activity. Further, compounds with clog P's < or = 3 demonstrated a dramatic reduction in CYP3A4 inhibitory activity.
