Abstract: This invention relates to novel (Z,Z), (Z,E) and (E,Z) olefin isomers of substituted benzylidene cycloketones and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The compounds of the invention are potent factor Xa inhibitors thereby acting as anticoagulants useful in a number of thrombotic disease states. Pharmaceutical compositions are proposed for the compounds.
