Cb. Xue et al., DESIGN, SYNTHESIS AND IN-VITRO ACTIVITIES OF A SERIES OF BENZIMIDAZOLE BENZOXAZOLE GLYCOPROTEIN IIB/IIIA INHIBITORS/, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 6(3), 1996, pp. 339-344
A potent centrally constrained series of benzimidazole and benzoxazole
glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors has been discovered based on the sol
ution conformation of a cyclic RGD-containing peptide, DMP 728. The hi
gh potency of this series of compounds in the inhibition of platelet a
ggregation requires a benzamidine as the basic moiety and an alpha-car
bamate or sulfonamide substituted beta-alanine as the acidic moiety.
