β-Substituted Cyclohexanecarboxamide:  A Nonpeptidic Framework for the Design of Potent Inhibitors of Cathepsin K

Abstract: A new series of nonpeptidic cathepsin K inhibitors that are based on a beta-substituted cyclohexanecarboxamide motif has been developed. Lead optimization yielded compounds with sub-nanomolar potency and exceptional selectivity profiles against cathepsins B, L, and S. Use of fluorine atoms to block metabolism on the cyclohexyl ring led to compounds with excellent pharmacokinetic properties. Considering the well-established role of cathepsin K in osteoclast-mediated bone turnover, compounds such as (-)-34a (hra… Show more

“…For this reason, this class of cyclic amino acids has been used in the preparation of peptide-based drugs. [36] In particular, the 1-amino cyclohexanecarboxylic acid framework has been used in the design of cathepsin K inhibitors [37] and V 2 agonists of arginine vasopressin. [38] Treatment of (À)-10 with acetic anhydride followed by treatment with TBAF in THF gave the corresponding free carboxylic acid, which in turn was coupled with glycine ethyl ester to afford dipeptide (+)-12 in good yields (Scheme 5).…”

“…As was recently described by Crane et al, these b-substituted cyclohexanecarboxamides were serendipitously discovered in an attempt to replace the P2-P3 amide bond with a methylene--thioether moiety [54]. The b-substituent bypasses the H-bond to Gly66 and bridges directly into P3.…”

“…In addition, cyclic amino acids have been widely used in the preparation of peptide-based drugs. The 1-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid scaffold, for example, has been used in the design of a potent cathepsin K inhibitor [57] and V2 agonists of arginine vasopressin. [58] For these reasons and in view of the fact that incorporation of fluorine or fluorine-containing groups into compounds is widely used to improve the metabolic susceptibility of compounds, the synthesis of fluorinated cyclic amino acids has been receiving increasing attention in recent years.…”
