    Abstract

    This paper covers efforts to discover orally active potent and selective oxytocin antagonists. Screening pooled libraries identified a novel series of 2,5-diketopiperazine derivatives with antagonist activity at the human oxytocin receptor. We report the initial structure–activity relationship investigations and the determination of the stereochemistry of the most potent compounds.
