A series of benzo-macrolactones of varying ring size and conformation has, been prepared by chemical synthesis and evaluated by structural and, biological techniques. Thus, 12- to 16-membered lactones were obtained by, concise routes, involving ring-closing metathesis as a key step. In enzyme, assays, the 13-, 15-, and 16-membered analogs are good inhibitors, suggesting that they can adopt the required conformation to fit in the, ATP-binding site. This was confirmed by cocrystallization of 13-, 14-, and, 15-membered lactones with the N-terminal domain of yeast Hsp90, showing, that they bind similarly to the "natural" 14-membered radicicol.
