MMP-13 selective alpha-sulfone hydroxamates: identification of selective P1' amides

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2011 May 15;21(10):2823-5. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2011.03.095. Epub 2011 Apr 1.

Abstract

Continuing our interest in designing compounds preferentially potent and selective for MMP-13, we report on a series of hydroxamic acids with a flexible amide P1' substituents. We identify an amide which spares both MMP-1 and -14, and shows >500 fold selectivity for MMP-13 versus MMP-2 and -8.
