Isophthalic acid bis(L-prolyl-pyrrolidine) amide is a very potent prolyl oligopeptidase inhibitor, but it has a log P value of -0.2, which is very low for a compound targeted to the brain. Therefore, these types of compounds were further modified to improve the structure-activity relationships, with the focus on increasing the log P value. The inhibitory activity against prolyl oligopeptidase from pig brain was tested in vitro. The most promising compounds resulted from replacing the pyrrolidinyl group at the P5 site by cycloalkyl groups, such as cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl groups, and by a phenyl group. These compounds are slightly more potent, and they have a significantly higher log P value. The potency of these compounds was further increased by replacing the pyrrolidinyl group at the P1 site by 2(S)-cyanopyrrolidinyl and 2(S)-(hydroxyacetyl)pyrrolidinyl groups.

In this paper we report the systematic search for new, potent, and selective DPP II inhibitors. A study of the structure-activity relationship was conducted starting from aminoacyl pyrrolidides as lead compounds. Rational exploration of the P1
