Synthesis of 2,5-thiazole butanoic acids as potent and selective alpha(v)beta3 integrin receptor antagonists with improved oral pharmacokinetic properties.

We describe a series of 2,5 thiazole containing compounds, which are potent antagonists of the integrin alpha(v)beta3 and show selectivity relative to the other integrins, such as alpha(IIb)beta3 and alpha(v)beta6. These analogs were demonstrated to have high bioavailability relative to other relative heterocyclic analogs.

Convergent, parallel synthesis of a series of beta-substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole butanoic acids as potent and selective alpha(v)beta3 receptor antagonists.

We describe a series of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles, which are potent antagonists of the integrin alpha(v)beta3 and, in addition, show selectivity relative to the other beta3 integrin alpha(IIb)beta3. In whole cells, the majority of these analogs also demonstrated modest selectivity against other alpha(v) integrins such as alpha(v)beta1 and alpha(v)beta6.
