Novel compounds of formula (I), salts, solvates and hydrates thereof: <CHEM> in which: R1 and R2 are independently hydrogen; alkyl; alkoxy; halogen; or CF3; R3 is hydrogen; acyl, such as - @-alkyl or - @ - Z, where Z is optionally substituted aryl; or a group R-S- where R is an organic residue such that the group R-S- provides an in vivo-cleavable disulphide bond; R4 is C3-6 alkyl; R5 is hydrogen; alkyl; -CH2-R10 where R10 is optionally substituted phenyl or heteroaryl; or a group <CHEM> where R11 is hydrogen; alkyl; or -CH2-Ph where Ph is optionally substituted phenyl; and R12 is hydrogen or alkyl; and R6 is hydrogen; alkyl; or a group <CHEM> where R13 is hydrogen; or alkyl; and R14 is hydroxy; alkoxy; or -NR7R8 where each of R7 and R8 is hydrogen or alkyl, or R7 and R8 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bonded form a 5-, 6- or 7- membered ring with an optional oxygen, sulphur or optionally substituted nitrogen atom in the ring; or R5 and R6 are joined together as -(CH2)m- where m is an integer from 4 to 12; X is (CH2)n where n is 0, 1, or 2; and Y is CH2, processes for their preparation and their use as collagenase inhibitors. |
