Nonpeptidic Inhibitors of Human Leukocyte Elastase. 2. Design, Synthesis, and in vitro Activity of a Series of 3-Amino-6-aryl-2-oxopyridyl Trifluoromethyl Ketones
摘要:
A series of potent nonpeptidic inhibitors of the enzyme human leukocyte elastase (HLE) is reported. These inhibitors contain a 3-amino-2-pyridone ring as a central template in which the pyridone carbonyl and 3-position NH group are thought to form important hydrogen bonding interactions with the Val-216 residue of HLE. Substitution of the 6-position of the pyridone ring by various alkyl and aryl groups was found to afford increases in the in vitro potency of these inhibitors. A 6-position phenyl group, compound 10f, was found to result in a large increase in binding affinity, which was not obtained when the phenyl group was placed in either the 4- or 5-position of the molecule. Compound 10f was found to have good selectivity for HLE over other proteolytic enzymes, with the exception of bovine pancreatic chymotrypsin (BPC). Substitution of the 6-phenyl group in these molecules was found to decrease binding affinity for BPC without adversely affecting affinity for HLE.

A novel series of humanleukocyteelastase (HLE) inhibitors containing the beta-carbolinone ring system are reported. The design of these trifluoromethyl ketone-based inhibitors used a combination of structural information obtained from X-ray crystallography and molecular modeling investigations. The beta-carbolinone ring in these compounds serves as a highly efficient peptidiomimetic for the P2-P3
The present invention relates to certain novel heterocyclic amides which are 1-pyridylacetamide compounds of formula I, set out herein, which are inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase (HLE), also known as human neutrophil elastase (HNE), making them useful whenever such inhibition is desired, such as for research tools in pharmacological, diagnostic and related studies and in the treatment of diseases in mammals in which HLE is implicated. The invention also includes intermediates useful in the synthesis of these heterocyclic amides, processes for preparing the heterocyclic amides, pharmaceutical compositions containing such heterocyclic amides and methods for their use.

Using molecular modeling and the information derived from X-ray crystal structures of human neutrophil elastase (HNE) and porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) complexed to peptidic ligands, we have developed a new series of nonpeptidic inhibitors of HNE, the pyridopyrimidine trifluoromethyl ketones (TFMKs). These bicyclic inhibitors were designed to extend the concept of the related pyridone trifluoromethyl ketones by incorporating a rigidly positioned carbonyl group to participate in a hydrogen bonding interaction with the backbone NH groups of Gly-218 and Gly-219 of the enzyme. In addition, the pyrimidine ring serves as a scaffold to vector substituents toward the S-5-S-4 subsites of the enzyme's extended binding pocket. Furthermore, the heteroatoms of the pyrimidine ring generally increase the aqueous solubility of the pyridopyrimidines relative to pyridone TFMKs. Pyridopyrimidine TFMKs containing a 6-phenyl substituent afforded potent inhibitors of elastase, and several inhibitors from this class of compounds possessed aqueous solubilities of > 0.1 mg/mL and K-i values of less than or equal to 10 nM.
