A series of potent nonpeptidic inhibitors of the enzyme human leukocyte elastase (HLE) is reported. These inhibitors contain a 3-amino-2-pyridone ring as a central template in which the pyridone carbonyl and 3-position NH group are thought to form important hydrogen bonding interactions with the Val-216 residue of HLE. Substitution of the 6-position of the pyridone ring by various alkyl and aryl groups was found to afford increases in the in vitro potency of these inhibitors. A 6-position phenyl group, compound 10f, was found to result in a large increase in binding affinity, which was not obtained when the phenyl group was placed in either the 4- or 5-position of the molecule. Compound 10f was found to have good selectivity for HLE over other proteolytic enzymes, with the exception of bovine pancreatic chymotrypsin (BPC). Substitution of the 6-phenyl group in these molecules was found to decrease binding affinity for BPC without adversely affecting affinity for HLE.
Functionalization of substituted 2(1H)- and 4(1H)-pyridones. III. The preparation of substituted 6-vinyl-1,2-dihydro-2-oxo- and 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acids through the chemistry of pyridone dianions

The synthesis of various substituted 6-vinyl-1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acids from the dianions of 1,2-dihydro-6-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyridinecarbonitrile and the corresponding 3-t-butyl ester is reported. The dianions were generated with LDA in THF at low temperature and reacted with various carbonyl substrates. Several conditions for the dehydration and hydrolysis of these adducts to the vinyl pyridone acids are discussed. Employing the conditions used for the 2-pyridone analogs, a series of substituted 6-vinyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acids was prepared through the new dianion of 1,4-dihydro-6-methyl-4-oxo-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid, t-butyl ester.
