Synthesis and evaluation of a ring-constrained Hsp90 C-terminal inhibitor that exhibits neuroprotective activity.


ABSTRACT: KU-596 is a second-generation C-terminal heat shock protein 90 KDa (Hsp90) modulator based on the natural product, novobiocin. KU-596 has been shown to induce Hsp70 levels and manifest neuroprotective activity through induction of the heat shock response. A ring-constrained analog of KU-596 was designed and synthesized to probe its binding orientation and ability to induce Hsp70 levels. Compound 2 was found to exhibit comparable or increased activity compared to KU-596, which is under clinical investigation for the treatment of neuropathy.
