Influence of the position of the phenyl group relative to the imido nitrogen of DFHBI. (A) The predicted 3D models of two DFHBI derivatives with either a one carbon link to the phenyl group (MFP-DFHBI) or a two carbon link (compound 5). (B) Affinities (Kas) in buffer SX of compounds with benzyl or phenethyl extensions from the imido nitrogen.
