title: [Methionine derivatives with liver protecting activity].
abstract: Some methionine derivatives with the amine group acylated with an aliphatic group bearing a free, esterified or etherified thiol group in the omega position were prepared and tested for protection against CCl4, paracetamol, ethyl alcohol and ethionine intoxication. Acid (XIV) (MG 28013) (Table I) and some of its alkyl derivatives (XVIII) (MG 28228) and (XIX) (MG 28226) proved to have significant activity in these tests. A more in-depth study on MG 28226 however indicated a slight intolerance when subacute toxicity was examined (90 gg).
