Abstract

Several [(1H-imidazol-1-yl) methyl]-and [(3-ppidinyl) methyl] pyrroles were prepared and evaluated in vitro as thromboxane synthetase inhibitors in human platelet aggregation studies. A number of structures, eg lOb, f, g, i (respective ICm values: 1 pM, 50 nM, 42 nM, 44 nM) showed superior in vitro inhibition of TXAz synthetase when compared to the standard dazoxiben (1). However, it was found that in vitro potency did not translate into nor ...
