(such as “click chemistry” and amide-forming reactions) (4) have recently led us to the
development of “click” assembled, hydroxamate-containing peptide analogues which showed
micromolar inhibitory activities against various MMPs. (5) Herein, we describe a “one-pot” click
chemistry procedure for the rapid assembly of small molecule MMP inhibitors containing novel
… We eventually found that D or E (1 equiv) and C1−C28 (1.1 equiv) with K 2 CO 3 (1 equiv; …
