A series of N-(2-amino-5-substituted phenyl) benzamides (3–21) were designed,
synthesized and evaluated for their inhibition of HDAC2 and their cytotoxicity in HCT116
cancer cells. Multiple compounds from this series demonstrated time-dependent binding
kinetics that is rationalized using a co-complex crystal structure of HDAC2 and N-(4-
aminobiphenyl-3-yl) benzamide (6).
