Abstract
4-[(5-[2-Methyl-5-(methylsulfonyl)pentan-2-yl]sulfonylpyrimidin-4-yl)amino]benzonitrile 2 was identified as a novel potent aldosterone synthase inhibitor. Compound 2 was found to inhibit human CYP11B2 in the nanomolar range, and showed an aldosterone-lowering effect in a furosemide-treated cynomolgus monkey model. Although human CYP11B2 has the high homology sequence with human CYP11B1, compound 2 showed more than 80 times higher selectivity over human CYP11B1 in vitro.
期刊介绍：
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry provides an international forum for the publication of full original research papers and critical reviews on molecular interactions in key biological targets such as receptors, channels, enzymes, nucleotides, lipids and saccharides.
The aim of the journal is to promote a better understanding at the molecular level of life processes, and living organisms, as well as the interaction of these with chemical agents. A special feature will be that colour illustrations will be reproduced at no charge to the author, provided that the Editor agrees that colour is essential to the information content of the illustration in question.
