Synthesis and SAR of hydroxyethylamine based phenylcarboxyamides as inhibitors of BACE

A series of N-((2S,3R)-1-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-3-hydroxy-4-(3-methoxybenzylamino)-butan-2-yl)benzamides has been synthesized as BACE inhibitors. A variety of P2 and P3 substituents has been explored, and these efforts have culminated in the identification of several 1,3,5-trisubstituted phenylcarboxyamides with potent BACE inhibitory activity.
