Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of New Hybrid Derivatives of 5,6-Dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-2(1H)-one as Potential Dual Inhibitors of Blood Coagulation Factors Xa and XIa.

Cardiovascular diseases caused by blood coagulation system disorders are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the world. Research shows that blood clotting factors are involved in these thrombotic processes. Among them, factor Xa occupies a key position in the blood coagulation cascade. Another coagulation factor, XIa, is also a promising target because its inhibition can suppress thrombosis with a limited contribution to normal hemostasis. In this regard, the development of dual inhibitors as new generation anticoagulants is an urgent problem. Here we report the synthesis and evaluation of novel potential dual inhibitors of coagulation factors Xa and XIa. Based on the principles of molecular design, we selected a series of compounds that combine in their structure fragments of pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-2-one and thiazole, connected through a hydrazine linker. The production of new hybrid molecules was carried out using a two-stage method. The reaction of 5,6-dihydropyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1,2-diones with thiosemicarbazide gave the corresponding hydrazinocarbothioamides. The reaction of the latter with DMAD led to the target methyl 2-(4-oxo-2-(2-(2-oxo-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-1(2H)-ylidene)hydrazineyl)thiazol-5(4H)-ylidene)acetates in high yields. In vitro testing of the synthesized molecules revealed that ten of them showed high inhibition values for both the coagulation factors Xa and XIa, and the IC50 value for some compounds was also assessed. The resulting structures were also tested for their ability to inhibit thrombin.
