Publication number: 20040106593Abstract: The present invention relates to highly enantiomerically pure lactam-substituted propanoic acid derivatives and methods of making and using therefor. The invention involves a multi-step synthesis to produce the lactam compounds. In one step of the reaction sequence, asymmetric hydrogenation of a lactam-enamide was performed to produce an intermediate that can ultimately be converted to a series of pharmaceutical compounds. The invention also contemplates the in situ synthesis of an intermediate of the multi-step synthesis, which provides economic advantages to the overall synthesis of the lactam compounds.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 25, 2003Publication date: June 3, 2004Inventors: Neil Warren Boaz, Sheryl Davis Debenham

Patent number: 6743790Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds of the formula I, in which R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, A, X, m and n have the meanings indicated in the claims. The compounds of the formula I are valuable pharmacologically active compounds. They exhibit a strong antithrombotic effect and are suitable, for example, for the therapy and prophylaxis of thromboembolic diseases and restenoses. They are reversible inhibitors of the blood clotting enzyme factor VIIa and can in general be applied in conditions in which an undesired activity of factor VIIa is present or for the cure or prevention of which an inhibition of factor VIIa is intended. The invention furthermore relates to processes for the preparation of compounds of the formula I, their use, for example as active ingredients in pharmaceuticals, and pharmaceutical preparations comprising them.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2001Date of Patent: June 1, 2004Assignee: Aventis Pharma Deutschland GmbHInventors: Otmar Klingler, Manfred Schudok, Hans-Peter Nestler, Hans Matter, Herman Schreuder

Patent number: 6730783Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2003Date of Patent: May 4, 2004Assignee: 3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc.Inventors: Bruce E. Tomczuk, Richard M. Soll, Tianbao Lu, Cynthia L. Fedde, Carl R. Illig, Thomas P. Markotan
