Abstract

We have previously described poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitors based on a substituted benzyl-phthalazinone scaffold. As an alternative chemical template, a novel series of alkoxybenzamides were developed with restricted conformation through intramolecular hydrogen bond formation; the compounds exhibit low nM enzyme and cellular activity as PARP-1 inhibitors.
