Thiophene and bioisostere derivatives as new MMP12 inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2011 Jan 1;21(1):528-30. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2010.10.087. Epub 2010 Nov 9.

Abstract

A new MMP12 inhibitor series has been identified containing a thiophene moiety. Different approaches have been considered to replace this potential toxicophore. α-Fluorothiophene derivatives were the most interesting compounds. Their synthesis is presented.
