The synthesis and biological evaluation of non-peptidic matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1999 Oct 4;9(19):2887-92. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(99)00494-1.

Abstract

Novel sulfonamide matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors of general formula (9) were synthesised by a route involving a stereoselective conjugate addition reaction. Enzyme selectivity was found to be dependant on the nature of the sulfonamide substituents. Compounds (9f, 9q) are potent selective collagenase inhibitors with good oral bioavailability.
