Cam Norrie fell short in a gruelling five-set battle against qualifier Michael Zheng, while qualifier Oliver Tarvet pushed 25th seed Arthur Rinderknech to four.
In the women's draw Harriet Dart lost out in a close battle with former Roland Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko.
Meanwhile Francesca Jones, Mika Stojsavljevic, Mimi Xu, Hannah Klugman, Felix Gill, Alicia Dudeney and Max Basing also lost first round matches on day one at Wimbledon.
Jack Pinnington Jones will have to return tomorrow to finish his match with 28th seed Brandon Nakashima, currently trailing the HSBC Championships semi-finalist 6-3, 7-6(5), 4-3.
British No.1 Norrie came out on the losing side of a five-set thriller to qualifier Michael Zhang - falling short in a 6-7(7), 6-2, 6-7(2), 6-3, 7-6(4) defeat in just over four hours.
The former Wimbledon semi-finalist led by a set twice but couldn’t shake off the resilient American who was making his main draw debut in SW19.
In the match-deciding tie-break, it was Zheng who managed to find another gear and at 8-4 struck his 47th winner of the match to bring up five match points before sealing victory as Norrie sent a tired backhand into the net.
Britain's Dart opened up the day on No.1 Court in a close defeat to world No.31 Ostapenko 6-3, 3-6, 6-4.
Dart led by a break twice at the start of the deciding set and had a break point at 4-4 but couldn't get over the line against the former semi-finalist.
Ostapenko took her chance when it came, sealing the win with her 46th winner of the match.
Tarvet showed his fight to take a set off the Frenchman but narrowly bowed out in defeat 7-6(4), 7-6(4), 4-6, 7-5.
The qualifier responded well after losing two tight tie-breaks, breaking the world No. 28 in the seventh game to claim the third set.
Tarvet fought to take the match to a fourth set tie-break - saving three match points at 6-5, before Rinderknech made it fourth time lucky to close out a spot in the second round.
British rising star Stojsavljevic was defeated by 11th seed and former Olympic gold medallist Belinda Bencic in straight sets.
The young Brit broke in the opening game, but the Swiss star ultimately proved too strong, winning 6-2, 6-1.
Gill put up a good fight against 23rd seed Rafael Jodar, but the Spaniard claimed a 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 victory on his Wimbledon debut.
The young Brit led 2-0 at the start of the third set, but Roland Garros quarter-finalist Jodar broke twice, racking up 12 winners to seal the win.
Xu pushed Daria Kasatkina to three sets but it was the Australian who found her level in the decider, winning 6-2, 3-6, 6-2.
The Brit looked on her way to pulling off a comeback victory over the former world No.8 before Kasatkina broke twice in the decider to book her place in the second round.
Jones lost out in a close encounter to Frenchwoman Diane Parry, 6-4, 6-4.
Dudeney made her Wimbledon debut in a 6-3, 6-3 defeat to American Alycia Parks.
Klugman fell short to former champion Barbora Krejcikova, 6-1, 6-4 in an hour and 26 minutes.
Qualifier Basing saw his dream run come to an end against Shintaro Mochizuki 6-3, 6-0, 6-0. The 23-year-old Brit was playing in his first Grand Slam match after an excellent run through qualifying last week.
