We report the design and synthesis of a series of dipeptide-type inhibitors with novel P3 scaffolds that display potent inhibitory activity against SARS-CoV 3CLpro. A docking study involving binding between the dipeptidic lead compound 4 and 3CLpro suggested the modification of a structurally flexible P3 N-(3-methoxyphenyl)glycine with various rigid P3 moieties in 4. The modifications led to the identification of several potent derivatives, including 5c–k and 5n with the inhibitory activities (Ki or IC50) in the submicromolar to nanomolar range. Compound 5h, in particular, displayed the most potent inhibitory activity, with a Ki value of 0.006 μM. This potency was 65-fold higher than the potency of the lead compound 4 (Ki = 0.39 μM). In addition, the Ki value of 5h was in very good agreement with the binding affinity (16 nM) observed in isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). A SAR study around the P3 group in the lead 4 led to the identification of a rigid indole-2-carbonyl unit as one of the best P3 moieties (5c). Further optimization showed that a methoxy substitution at the 4-position on the indole unit was highly favorable for enhancing the inhibitory potency. A series of low-molecular-weight dipeptide-type anti-SARS agents were synthesized. Compounds have shown potent inhibitory activities. Discovery of potent lead compound was achieved by introducing P3 indole-2-carbonyl unit. Compounds 5h exhibited excellent inhibitory activity with K i value of 6.0 nM.
