    AbstractA hydroxamic acid screening hit 1 was elaborated to 5,5-dimethyl-2-oxoazepane derivatives exhibiting low nanomolar inhibition of gamma-secretase, a key proteolytic enzyme involved in Alzheimer's disease. Early ADME data showed a high metabolic clearance for the geminal dimethyl analogs which could be overcome by replacement with the bioisosteric geminal difluoro group. Synthesis and structure-activity relationship are discussed and in vivo active compounds are presented.
