A potent centrally constrained series of benzimidazole and benzoxazole glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors has been discovered based on the solution conformation of a cyclic RGD-containing peptide, DMP 728. The high potency of this series of compounds in the inhibition of platelet aggregation requires a benzamidine as the basic moiety and an α-carbamate or sulfonamide substituted β-alanine as the acidic moiety.
