technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to new ester derivatives of dabigatran and their non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable salts, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds as active ingredients, and the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions as thrombin inhibitors use. Background technique
[0002] Dabigatran is a selective and highly effective thrombin inhibitor. However, due to the presence of a strong basic amidine group, it cannot be absorbed orally. In order to improve its bioavailability, the free carboxyl group in the dabigatran molecule is converted into ethyl ester, and the amidine group is converted into hexyl carbamate to obtain its double prodrug dabigatran diester (Dabigatran Etexilate). After oral administration, dabigatran diester is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, and then converted into the active form of dabigatran in the body to exert anticoagulant effect. Dabigatran diester was launched in 2008 and ...
