5-Aryl-4-(5-substituted-2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles as inhibitors of Hsp90 chaperone

A series of 5-aryl-4-(5-substituted-2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazoles were synthesized and their binding to several constructs of human Hsp90 chaperone measured by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The most potent compound bound Hsp90 with the dissociation constant of about 5 nM.
