title: Conformationally constrained NO synthase inhibitors: rigid analogs of L-N-iminoethylornithine.
abstract: The synthesis of eight rigid analogs of L-N-iminoethylornithine (L-NIO) is described. The compounds have been evaluated for their inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase. Preliminary structure-activity relationships are discussed.
