A four component coupling strategy for the synthesis of d-phenylglycinamide-derived non-covalent factor Xa inhibitors

A novel isonitrile derivative was synthesized and used in an Ugi four component coupling reaction to explore aryl group substitution effects on inhibition of the coagulation cascade serine protease factor Xa.

The design of phenylglycine containing benzamidine carboxamides as potent and selective inhibitors of factor Xa

Factor Xa, a critical serine protease in the blood coagulation cascade, has become a target for inhibition as a strategy for the invention of novel anti-thrombotic agents. Here we describe the development of phenylglycine containing benzamidine carboxamides as novel, potent and selective inhibitors of factor Xa.
