Asymmetric Synthesis of Silanediol Inhibitors for the Serine Protease Coagulation Cascade Enzyme FXIa

摘要

Silanediol peptidomimetics have been prepared, designed to inhibit the serine protease enzyme Factor XIa (FXIa) for treatment of thrombosis without complete interruption of normal hemostasis. These Arg-[Si]-Ala analogues of the FXIa substrate (FIX) are the first silanediol dipeptide analogues to carry a basic guanidine group. Control of stereochemistry was accomplished using catalytic asymmetric hydrosilylation and addition of a silyllithium intermediate to the Davis–Ellman sulfinimine.
