Abstract

Syntheses and evaluation of pyrrolidin-2-imines and 1,3-thiazolidin-2- imines as inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) are discussed. An extensive SAR was established for pyrrolidin-2-imines class of compounds. The amidines came out as the most potent inhibitors in addition to displaying selectivity.
