Abstract:
A series of novel transition state factor Xa inhibitors containing a variety of lactam ring systems as central templates was synthesized in an expedient manner and allowed for a great deal of structural variability. Among them, the piperazinone-based inhibitors were found to be not only active against factor Xa but also selective over thrombin. Optimization of the P4 moiety yielded several potent compounds with IC(50) below 1 nM against factor Xa.
