    Journal: Bioorg Med Chem Lett; 2004 Dec 06; 14(23):5899-902. PubMed ID: 15501065.
    Abstract:
    Modification of the ethano bridge of the core structure of the antitumor agent, SARASAR (SCH66336) with concomitant introduction of a sulfonamide moiety off the distal piperidine afforded inhibitor 9-(S-), a compound with greatly improved PK profile. Other compounds with enhanced FPTase inhibitory activity were obtained as exemplified by amide 10-(S-) and urea 11-(S-): these compounds demonstrated activity in picomolar range.
