Abstract
In a search for new inhibitors of platelet aggregation, certain coumarin-bearing alpha-methylene-gamma-butyrolactones were synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory activity against thrombin (Thr)-, arachidonic acid (AA)-, collagen (Col)-, and platelet-activating factor (PAF)-induced aggregation in washed rabbit platelets. These compounds were efficiently synthesized from commercially available 7-hydroxycoumarin or its derivatives. Among them, 7-[(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-4-methylene-5-oxo-2-phenyl-2-furanyl) methoxy]-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one (3d) showed the most potent inhibition of AA- and PAF- induced aggregation, with IC50 values of 3.65 and 16.36 microM respectively.
