Abstract

As a part of our efforts to identify potent inhibitors of farnesyltransferase (FTase), modification of the structure of tipifarnib through structure-based design was undertaken by replacing the 2-quinolones with 4-quinolones and pyridones, and subsequent relocation of the D-ring to the N-methyl group on the imidazole ring. This study has yielded a novel series of potent and selective FTase inhibitors. The X-ray structure of tipifarnib (1) in complex with FTase was described.
