A systematic study of anilines led to the discovery of a metabolically robust fluoroindoline replacement for the alkoxy aniline toxicophore in 1. Investigations of the P1 pocket resulted in the discovery of a wide tolerance of functionality leading to the discovery of 11 as a potent and selective inhibitor of cathepsin S.
