3,3-Diphenylpentane skeleton as a steroid skeleton substitute: Novel inhibitors of human 5α-reductase 1

4-(3-(4-( N-Methylacetamido)phenyl)pentan-3-yl)phenyl dibenzylcarbamate ( 11k) is a competitive 5α-reductase inhibitor with the IC 50 value of 0.84 μM. We designed and synthesized novel type 1 5α-reductase inhibitors by using 3,3-diphenylpentane skeleton as a substitute for the usual steroid skeleto...
