As part of the optimization process of the lead compound I a focussed library of diversely substituted pyridazin-3(2H)-ones containing a 3-oxo-3-phenylprop-1-en-1-yl or 3-phenylprop-2-enoyl fragment at position 5 has been obtained and evaluated as antiplatelet agents. The structural modification at positions 2, 6 and 4 of the heterocyclic moiety allowed us to obtain preliminary information on the structure-activity relationship in this family.
