Synthesis and Anticoagulant Activity of New Ethylidene and Spiro Derivatives of Pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-2-ones

Abstract

Abstract The reaction of pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1,2-diones with methyl (het)aryl ketones gave the corresponding 1-(het)arylmethylidenepyrroloquinolin-2-ones, and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the latter to azomethine ylide generated from sarcosine and paraformaldehyde afforded 4-acyl-1,4′,4′,6′-tetramethylspiro[pyrrolidine-3,1′-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinolin]-2′(4′H)-ones. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for inhibitory activity against blood coagulation factors Xa and XIa.
