A series of novel 5-trans-hydroxyadamantan-2-yl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrazolo[4,3-c]azepin-4(1H)-ones that inhibit 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 are described. We discovered these 7-membered cyclic amide derivatives by introducing a distinctive linker through pharmacophore analysis of known...
