Abstract

A series of 2-[3-[2-[(2S)-2-cyano-1-pyrrolidinyl]-2-oxoethylamino]-3-methyl-1-oxobutyl]-based DPP-IV inhibitors with various monocyclic amines were synthesized. The structure-activity relationships (SAR) led to the discovery of potent DPP-IV inhibitors, having IC(50) values of <100 nM with excellent selectivity over the closely related enzymes, DPP-II, DPP8, DPP9 and FAP (IC(50)>20 microM). Of these compounds, the analogues 12a, 12h and 12i exhibited a long-lasting ex vivo DPP-IV inhibition in rats.
