Abstract
Screening of the Merck sample collection for compounds with CCR5 receptor b inding afforded (2S)-2-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)- 1-[N-(methyl)-N-(phenylsulfony l)amino]-4,4'-piperidin-1'-yl)]butane S-oxide (4) as a potent lead structur e having an IC50 binding affinity of 35 nM. Herein, we describe the discove ry of this lead structure and our initial structure-activity relationship s tudies directed toward the requirement for and optimization of the 1-amino fragment.
