Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2002 Nov 4;12(21):3125-8. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(02)00641-8.

Abstract

A series of heterocyclic replacements for the central diamide moiety of 1, a potent small molecule inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) were explored The synthesis and the structure-activity relationships (SARs), derived from in vitro studies, for these new series of inhibitors is given.
