The design and synthesis of peptide mimetics of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) in which the peptide backbone is entirely replaced by a cyclohexane framework are described.The cis-1,3,5-trisubstituted ring was expected to permit key pharmacophoric gro

[(5-oxo-2-pyrrolidinyl)methyl]cyclohexaneacetamides of the formula STR1 wherein R1 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or aryl-lower alkyl; R2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, aryl, aryl-lower alkyl, STR2 wherein R5 and R6 are hydrogen, lower alkyl or aryl-lower alkyl; R3 and R4, independently, are hydrogen, lower alkyl, or aryl-lower alkyl; and enantiomers, diastereomers, and racemates thereof, and, when R2 is STR3 pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, are described. The compounds of formula I exhibit cognitive enhancement and antiamnestic activity and are therefore useful, for example, in treating memory deficits associated with Alzheimer's disease or age-associated memory impairment.
