A series of five Phe-Gly dipeptidomimetics containing different amide bond replacements have been synthesized in a facile way from the readily available unsaturated ketoester 1, and their affinities for the di-/tripeptide transporters hPEPT1 (Caco-2 cells

The first asymmetric synthesis of novel, potent photoreactive γ-secretase inhibitors 2 and 3 has been accomplished. Two Stereoselective methods for the preparation of lactone 9 are described. Protected benzophenone intermediate 19 is prepared via an aldol-elimination reaction followed by a PtO2-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation. Two routes leading from 19 to compounds 2 and 3 are evaluated. The application of 3 as an activity-based probe has been demonstrated by localizing γ-secretase activity in the plasma membrane of intact cells.
