Discovery of novel hydantoins as selective non-hydroxamate inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE)

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2007 Mar 1;17(5):1413-7. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2006.11.089. Epub 2006 Dec 2.

Abstract

A series of novel hydantoins was designed and synthesized as structural alternatives to hydroxamate inhibitors of TACE. 5-Mono- and di-substituted hydantoins exhibited activity with IC50 values of 11-60 nM against porcine TACE in vitro and excellent selectivity against other MMPs.
