Time-dependent inhibitors of the enzyme human leukocyte elastase have been developed based on the cephem nucleus. A series of cephalosporin tert-butyl esters has been examined, and the activity of these compounds has been found to be very sensitive to C-7 substituents, with small, alpha-oriented, electron-withdrawing groups showing greatest activity. Additionally, the oxidation state of the sulfur atom has been found to play a role in potency, with sulfones showing considerably greater activity than the corresponding sulfides or beta-sulfoxides. The alpha-sulfoxides were inactive.
基于头孢烯核开发了人白细胞弹性蛋白酶的时间依赖性抑制剂。已对一系列头孢菌素叔丁酯进行了研究,发现这些化合物的活性对C-7取代基非常敏感,具有小的、α-取向的吸电子基团表现出最大活性。此外,已发现硫原子的氧化态在效力方面起作用,砜类显示出比相应的硫化物或β-亚砜类大得多的活性。α-亚砜类无活性。
