Design, synthesis, and SAR of substituted acrylamides as factor Xa inhibitors
摘要:
Substituted acrylamides were used as templates that bridge P1 and P4 binding elements, resulting in a series of potent sub-nanomolar) and selective factor Xa inhibitors. In this template, cis-geometry of P1 and P4 ligands is highly preferred. SAR on the substituting groups, as well as on modification of P1 and P4 moieties is described. Compounds in this series show good in vivo efficacy in animal models. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

The asymmetric bioreduction of a library of beta-cyanoacrylate esters using ene-reductases was studied with the aim to provide a biocatalytic route to precursors for GABA analogues, such as pregabalin. The stereochemical outcome could be controlled by substrate-engineering through size-variation of the ester moiety and by employing stereochemically pure (E)- or (Z)-isomers, which allowed to access both enantiomers of each product in up to quantitative conversion in enantiomerically pure form. In addition, stereoselectivities and conversions could be improved by mutant variants of OPR1, and the utility of the system was demonstrated by preparative-scale applications.
