Type 3 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD), a key steroidogenic enzyme, transforms 4-androstene-3,17-dione (Δ4-dione) into testosterone. In order to produce potential inhibitors, we performed solid-phase synthesis of model libraries of 3β-peptido-3α-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-ones with 1, 2, or 3 levels of molecular diversity, obtaining good overall yields (23–58%) and a high average purity (86%, without any purification steps) using the Leznoff's acetal linker. The libraries were rapidly synthesized in a parallel format and the generated compounds were tested as inhibitors of type 3 17β-HSD. Potent inhibitors were identified from these model libraries, especially six members of the level 3 library having at least one phenyl group. One of them, the 3β-(N-heptanoyl-l-phenylalanine-l-leucine-aminomethyl)-3α-hydroxy-5α-androstan-17-one (42) inhibited the enzyme with an IC50 value of 227 nM, which is twice as potent as the natural substrate Δ4-dione when used itself as an inhibitor. Using the proliferation of androgen-sensitive (AR+) Shionogi cells as model of androgenicity, the compound 42 induced only a slight proliferation at 1 μM (less than previously reported type 3 17β-HSD inhibitors) and, interestingly, no proliferation at 0.1 μM.
