• PubMed Abstract: 
  

  The trifluoromethylphenyl P2 motif from previously reported heteroarylnitrile series has been successfully applied for the design and synthesis of highly potent novel ketoamide-based cathepsin S inhibitors. The key in this process is the change of the torsion angle between the P2 phenyl ring and the attached secondary amide by adding a small Cl, F, or Me group at the 2-position.
