An amidoaromatic ring sulfonamide hydroxamic acid compound that inter alia inhibits matrix metalloprotease activity is disclosed, as are a treatment process that comprises administering a contemplated amidoaromatic ring sulfonamide hydroxamic acid compound in a MMP enzyme-inhibiting effective amount to a host having a condition associated with pathological matrix metalloprotease activity.

Amidoaromatic ring sulfonamide hydroxamic acid compounds

This invention is directed to proteinase (protease) inhibitors, and more particularly to thiol sulfone inhibitors for matrix metalloproteinase 13(MMP-13), compositions of proteinase inhibitors, intermediates for the syntheses of proteinase inhibitors, processes for the preparation of proteinase inhibitors and processes for treating pathological conditions associated with pathological matrix metalloproteinase activity related to MMP-13.

Thiol sulfone metalloprotease inhibitors

The stereochemistry of sialylation of an acceptor saccharide to obtain an .alpha. (2-3) or .alpha. (2-6) linkage is controlled to favor the .alpha. anomer by use of an aromatic ester of the sialyl reagent. The resulting intermediate .alpha. (2-3) and .alpha. (2-6) sialylated intermediate disaccharide blocks are useful in the synthesis of antigenic substances which can be used to raise antibodies useful in diagnosis and therapy, and can themselves be used as reagents in various applications. The preparation of the tetrasaccharide antigens corresponding to the 19-9 and sialyl-X antigens characteristic of malignant tissue illustrates the application of this method.
