Abstract
(2S)-2-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-1-[N-(methyl)-N-(phenylsulfonyl)amino]-4-[spiro (2,3-dihydrobenzthiophene-3,4'-piperidin-1'-yl)]butane S-oxide (3) has been identified as a potent CCR5 antagonist lead structure having an IC50 = 35 nM. Herein, we describe the structure-activity relationship studies directe d toward the requirement for and optimization of the C-2 phenyl fragment. T he phenyl was found to be important for CCR5 antagonism and substitution wa s limited to small moieties at the 3-position (13 and 16. X=H, 3-F, 3-Cl, 3 -Me).
