Abstract

Benzolactam Growth Hormone Secretagogues: Replacement of the C-3 Amide Bond in L-692,429.-General benzolactams are created as potential new nonpeptidyl growth-hormone secretagogues on the basis of the known L-692429. It can be shown that the substitution of the C-3 amide bond by an urea moiety results in the formation of compounds like (IV), which have equal activity compared with the parent compound. -(OK, H.
