Abstract
Five X-ray crystal structures of scytalone dehydratase complexed with different inhibitors have delineated conformationally flexible regions of the binding pocket. This information was used for the design and synthesis of a norephedrine-derived cyanoacetamide class of inhibitors leading to potent fungicides.
