    Abstract:
    Hepatitis C (HCV) infection is a global health crisis leading to chronic liver disease. In our efforts towards a second generation HCV NS3 serine protease inhibitor with improved profile, we have undertaken SAR studies in various regions of Boceprevir including P2. Herein, we report the synthesis and structure-activity relationship studies of inhibitors with (S)-1,4-dithia-7-azaspiro[4.4]nonane-8-carboxylic acid 2 as P2 substituent replacing the (1R,2S,5S)-6,6-dimethyl 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2-carboxylic acid. The systematic investigation led to the discovery of highly potent inhibitor 25 (K(i)( *)=7nM, EC(90)=30nM) with improved rat exposure of 2.56microM h.
