Twenty-six alkyl and aralkyl histamine analogues were prepared as potential cardiotonic agents. Compounds were designed to allow interaction with a putative secondary aryl binding site at the H2 receptor, the presence of which was inferred from the structure of cyprohepatadine, which is known to have H2-antagonist properties. The compounds were examined for inotropic activity in ferret papillary muscle. Potent inotropic activity was generally found in N-alkyl- and N,N-dialkylimidazole-4-ethanamines, whereas N-(amidoalkyl)imidazole-4-ethanamines and N-alkylimidazole-4-propanamines were at best weakly active. Five compounds were examined in screens designed to assess hemodynamic effects and gastric acid secretion in vivo. Two of these compounds, alpha-(3-phenyl-2-transpropenyl)-1H-imidazole-4-ethanamine and N-heptyl-1H-imidazole-4-ethanamine, showed positive inotropic activity with minimal effects on heart rate and mean arterial pressure in vivo; however, both compounds were found to stimulate gastric acid secretion. These results demonstrate that selectivity between various H2-receptor-mediated activities can be obtained with substituted histamine analogues.
