Abstract

Novel compounds of the formula I ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or are linked to form C.sub.3 -C.sub.7 cycloalkyl and R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are the same or different and are hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, hydroxy, OR.sup.6, SR.sup.6, halogen, NR.sup.7 R.sup.8, NO.sub.2, CN, CONR.sup.7 R.sup.8 or CO.sub.2 R.sup.9 wherein R.sup.6 is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 aralkyl and R.sup.7, R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 are the same or different and are hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.10 aralkyl or R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bound form 5 or 6 membered azacycloalkyl or oxazacycloalkyl; Arg is arginine NH--CH(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 NH--C(.dbd.NH)--NH.sub.2)--CO!; X is methine CH or nitrogen; n is an integer from 0 to 7; L is a peptide linker, and H is the carboxy terminal end of hirudin, and salts thereof, are provided. The novel compounds are useful for the medical treatment or prevention of thrombosis or diseases caused by thrombosis or can be used for the determination of thrombin in blood as diagnostic reagents.
