Abstract: We report herein the initial exploration of novel selective HDAC1/HDAC2 inhibitors (SHI-1:2). Optimized SHI-1:2 structures exhibit enhanced intrinsic activity against HDAC1 and HDAC2, and are greater than 100-fold selective versus other HDACs, including HDAC3. Based on the SAR of these agents and our current understanding of the HDAC active site, we postulate that the SHI-1:2 extend the existing HDAC inhibitor pharmacophore to include an internal binding domain.
