Discovery of hydroxy pyrimidine Factor IXa inhibitors.

The synthesis and structure activity relationship development of a pyrimidine series of heterocyclic Factor IXa inhibitors is described. Increased selectivity over Factor Xa inhibition was achieved through SAR expansion of the P1 element. Select compounds were evaluated in vivo to assess their plasma levels in rat.

Preparation of Indole Containing Building Blocks for the Regiospecific Construction of Indole Appended Pyrazoles and Pyrroles.

The preparation of an indole appended vinamidinium salt, an indole appended vinylogous amide and an indole appended chloroenal are described. The subsequent regiospecific conversion of these indole containing building blocks to functionalized pyrazoles and pyrroles is detailed.
