  • Patent number: 6730783
    Abstract: Aminoguanidine and alkoxyguanidine compounds, including compounds of the formula: wherein X is O or NR9 and R1-R4, R6-R9, R11, R12, Ra, Rb, Rc, Y, Z, n and m are set forth in the specification, as well as hydrates, solvates or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, that inhibit proteolytic enzymes such as thrombin are described. Also described are methods for preparing the compounds of Formula I. The novel compounds of the present invention are potent inhibitors of proteases, especially trypsin-like serine proteases, such as chymotrypsin, trypsin, thrombin, plasmin and factor Xa. Certain of the compounds exhibit antithrombotic activity via direct, selective inhibition of thrombin, or are intermediates useful for forming compounds having antithrombotic activity.

  • Patent number: 6127191
    Abstract: The present invention provides a library of compounds, each comprised of a common aminobenzenedicarboxylic acid core structure (scaffold) that serves as a template for synthesizing approximately 10.sup.1 -10.sup.6 compounds which are analogs of the scaffold. The library is employed to study ligand binding by biological receptors, such as enzymes, G-protein coupled receptors and membrane channels. For example, certain individual compounds within the library selectively bind and inhibit the action of trypsin-like serine proteases. The present invention also relates to combinatorial synthetic methods for making such libraries of compounds. Additionally, the present invention relates to novel scaffold-modified solid supports, particularly scaffold-modified polymer resins and methods for preparing said resins.
