1 (L-374,087) is a potent, selective, efficacious, and orally bioavailable thrombin inhibitor that contains a core 3-amino-2-pyridinone moiety. Replacement of the C6 pyridinone methyl group of 1 by a propyl group gave 5 (L-375,052), which retained all the excellent properties of 1, and also yielded higher plasma levels after oral dosing in dogs and rats.
