Abstract
A series of boropeptide thrombin inhibitors was prepared in which the P3 residues of 2 (Ac-(D)-Phe-Pro-boroLys-OH . HCl) and 3 (3-Phenylprop ionyl-Pro-borolys-OH . HCl) were replaced by conformationally-restrict ed, benzoic acid-derived residues 4. The potent binding affinity of th e resulting inhibitors such as 10 may be due in part to a unique mode of binding in the thrombin active site.
