Abstract
A series of β-lactam derivatives were synthesized and tested to determine the structure-activity relationship for inhibition of human leukocyte elastase (HLE), a serine protease involved in several degenerative lung and tissue diseases. The most potent IC50values were obtained with neutral hydrophobic 7α-methoxy cephalosporanic acid derivatives. Tryptophanyl-9-fluorenylmethyl ester and N-benzhydryl piperazine derivatives of 7α-methoxy cephalosporanic acid represent two novel HLE inhibitors, with length of action persisting beyond 24 h.Key words: β-lactams, neutrophil elastase, protease inhibitors, peptides.
