Abstract: Thrombin, a serine protease, plays a central role in the initiation of thrombotic events. We report the design, synthesis, and antithrombotic efficacy of XU817 (7), a nonpeptide 5-(amidino) indole thrombin inhibitor. Utilizing the co-crystal structure of XU817 bound in the active site of thrombin we were able to synthesize analogs with enhanced thrombin affinity.
