In continuing search for novel antiplatelet agents, the highly potent agent 2‐chloro‐3‐methoxycarbonylethylcarboxamido‐1,4‐naphthoquinone 2 was selected as lead compound. Structure‐activity relationships in this series were examined. Some of these compounds showed significant antiplatelet activities. Further studies on the action mechanism showed that 2‐acetamido‐3‐chloro‐1,4‐naphthoquinone 4 has a direct inhibitory action on cytosolic phospholipase A 2 (cPLA 2 ) activity in platelets.
