of rat brain homogenate and on arachidonate-induced TXA2-dependent aggregation of rabbit platelets. The anti-platelet and anti-peroxidative activities were related to the lipophilicity of the 5-substituent. The 5-hexyloxy derivative (13) showed about 35-fold higher inhibitory activity on TXA2 synthesis than that of ozagrel and about 100-fold higher activity on lipid peroxidation than that of alpha-tocopherol
