Abstract

The iterative process for the discovery of a series of pyrazinone mono-amides as potent, selective and reversible non-peptide Caspase-3 inhibitors (e.g., M826 and M867) is reported. These compounds display potent anti apoptotic activities in a number of cell based systems in vitro as well as in several animal models in vivo.
