The control of hypertension and associated cardiovascular risk factors is possible by selective inhibition of the aspartyl protease renin due to its unique position in the renin-angiotensin system. Starting from a previously disclosed series of potent and nonchiral indole-3-carboxamides, we further explored this motif by structure-based drug design guided by X-ray crystallography in combination with efficient parallel synthesis. This resulted in the discovery of 4- or 6-azaindole derivatives with remarkable potency for renin inhibition. The best compound from these series showed an IC50 value of 1.3 nM.

The present invention relates to a series of substituted indole derivatives of the formula I: wherein R, R1, R2, R3, R4, X and Y are as defined herein. This invention also relates to methods of making these compounds. The compounds of this invention are inhibitors of poly(adenosine 5′-diphosphate ribose) polymerase (PARP) and are therefore useful as pharmaceutical agents, especially in the treatment and/or prevention of a variety of diseases, including diseases associated with the central nervous system and cardiovascular disorders.
