Abstract
Several a-pyrones have been synthesized and investigated for their in vitro inhibitory activity using a-chymotrypsin (a-CT), porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) and human leukocyte elastase (HLE). 4-Hydroxy-6-undecyl-2H-pyran-2-one 4, 4-Hydroxy-6-[(1-butyl)heptyl]-2H-pyran-2-one 5 and 4-Methoxy-6-[(1-butyl) heptyl]-2H-pyran-2-one 6 were found to be specific inhibitors of HLE. These compounds constitute a promising new class of HLE inhibitors.Entities:
