Compounds of the formula <IMAGE> wherein A represents amidino group or an optionally substituted aminoethyl; R10 represents one species selected from a group consisting of nitro group, a halogen atom, a lower alkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group, a lower alkyloxycarbonyl group and a group represented by the formula OR11 (wherein R11 is hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, a lower alkenyl group, a lower alkynyl group, a lower alkanoyl group, a carbamoyl group or a methanesulfonyl group, each of which may be substituted; R12 and R13 respectively represent hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, a lower alkoxy group or a halogen atom; X represents hydroxyl group, p-hydroxyphenyl group or an optionally esterified or amidated carboxyl group; Y represents an optionally esterified or amidated carboxyl group; and n denotes 1 or 2, or a salt thereof and an agent for inhibiting adhesion of cells which comprise these compounds are desclosed. These have more potent and long lasting activities of inhibiting cell-adhesion, thus being useful as an orally administrable anti-thrombotic agent. |
