The synthesis and antitumor activity of a novel didemnin B analogue containing a ψ[CH2NH] amide bond surrogate between N-Me-D-Leu7 and Pro8 are reported. The analogue shows activity (GI50 = 4 nM) comparable to that of didemnin B (GI50 = 13 nM) in the NCI-60 tumor cell screen. This result, along with new data from previously reported synthetic didemnin analogues, is discussed within the context of the side-chain SAR for didemnins.
