Title: Discovery and gram-scale synthesis of BMS-593214, a potent, selective FVIIa inhibitor

Journal Article · · Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters

A 6-amidinotetrahydroquinoline screening hit was driven to a structurally novel, potent, and selective FVIIa inhibitor through a combination of library synthesis and rational design. An efficient gram-scale synthesis of the active enantiomer BMS-593214 was developed, which required significant optimization of the key Povarov annulation. Importantly, BMS-593214 showed antithrombotic efficacy in a rabbit arterial thrombosis model. A crystal structure of BMS-593214 bound to FVIIa highlights key contacts with Asp 189, Lys 192, and the S2 pocket.
