- Synthesis of enantiomerically pure D- and L-armentomycin and its difluoro analogues from aspartic acid
-
The synthesis of both enantiomers of 2-amino-4,4-dichlorobutanoic acid (armentomycin) and their fluoro analogues from aspartic acid via 2-amino-4-oxobutanoic acid protected with hexafluoroacetone is described.

- CYSTEINE PROTEASE INHIBITORS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PARASITIC DISEASES
-
Several parasites responsible for mammalian diseases are dependent on cysteine protease for various life-cycle functions. Inhibition or decreasing function of these proteases can be useful in the treatment and/or prevention of these parasitic diseases including; toxoplasmosis, malaria, African trypanosomiasis, Chagas disease, leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, amebiasis, giardiasis, clonorchiasis, opisthorchiasis, paragonimiasis, fasciolopsiasis, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, dracunculiasis, ascariasis, trichuriasis, strongyloidiasis, trichostrongyliasis, trichomoniasis or cestodiasis. Compounds of formula I of the invention are capable of treating and/or preventing the above-identified diseases:

- The discovery of odanacatib (MK-0822), a selective inhibitor of cathepsin K
-
Odanacatib is a potent, selective, and neutral cathepsin K inhibitor which was developed to address the metabolic liabilities of the Cat K inhibitor L-873724. Substituting P1 and modifying the P2 side chain led to a metabolically robust inhibitor with a long half-life in preclinical species. Odanacatib was more selective in whole cell assays than the published Cat K inhibitors balicatib and relacatib. Evaluation in dermal fibroblast culture showed minimal intracellular collagen accumulation relative to less selective Cat K inhibitors.
