Biaryl ether retrohydroxamates as potent, long-lived, orally bioavailable MMP inhibitors

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2001 Jun 18;11(12):1553-6. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(01)00031-2.

Abstract

A novel series of biaryl ether reverse hydroxamate MMP inhibitors has been developed. These compounds are potent MMP-2 inhibitors with limited activity against MMP-1. Select members of this series exhibit excellent pharmacokinetic properties with long elimination half-lives (7 h) and high oral bioavailability (100%).
