Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2006 Dec 15;16(24):6241-5. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.09.035. Epub 2006 Sep 26.

Abstract

High throughput screening efforts have identified a novel class of dichloroaniline amide 11beta-HSD1 inhibitors. SAR studies initiated from dichloroaniline 4 focused on retaining the potency and selectivity profile of the lead.
