TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - 1-Alkoxycarbonyl-3-halogenoazetidin-2-ones as elastase (PPE) inhibitors JO - Bioorganic and medicinal chemistry A1 - Gérard, Stéphane A1 - Nollet, Gaëtan A1 - Vande Put, Jennifer A1 - Marchand-Brynaert, Jacqueline SP - 3955 EP - 3964 VL - 10 IS - 12 N2 - A series of 1-alkoxycarbonyl-3-halogenoazetidin-2-ones, designed as potential suicide inhibitors of serine proteases, has been synthesized and evaluated against porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE). All the compounds were transient inhibitors, their activity depending mainly on the nature of the halogen substituent: bromo- and iodo- derivatives are more active (K(i) approximately 2-22 microM) than 3-chloroazetidinones (K(i) approximately 20-150 microM). The lipophilicity of the N-1 substituent appeared to exert a slightly positive effect.
