The design of dual thromboxane synthase inhibitor/thromboxane receptor antagonists (e.g. 15) based on the structure of the thromboxane synthase inhibitor dazmegrel is described. More potent receptor antagonists (e.g. 16c) result from replacement of the pyridinyl substituent with 4-fluorophenyl. Modelling suggests the existence of more than one site capable of interacting with the aryl sulfonamide of TxA₂ receptor antagonists.
