Abstract

A series of α-amino-β-sulphone hydroxamates was prepared and evaluated for potency versus MMP-13 and selectivity versus MMP-1. Various substituents were employed on the α-amino group (P1 position), as well as different groups attached to the sulphone group extending into P1′. Low nanomolar potency was obtained for MMP-13 with selectivity versus MMP-1 of >1000× for a number of analogues.

α-Amino-β-sulphone hydroxamates were prepared, which are potent MMP-13 inhibitors with selectivity versus MMP-1 of >1000× for a number of analogues. Selected compounds exhibited oral bioavailability.
