Discovery of Novel N-Phenylglycine Derivatives as Potent and Selective β3-Adrenoceptor Agonists for the Treatment of Frequent Urination and Urinary Incontinence
摘要:
With a novel assay using isolated ferret detrusor to estimate beta (3)-adrenoceptor agonistic activity, we found that a series of glycine derivatives of ritodrine, a beta (2)-adrenoceptor agonist, are potent beta (3)-adrenoceptor agonists, with excellent selectivity versus beta1 and beta (2) subtypes. Substitution of halogens in the phenyl ring increased potency and selectivity for the beta (3)-adrenoceptor, and this was dependent upon the position of the halogens. The chlorine-substituted derivatives 3f-i exhibited potent beta (3)-adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation of ferret detrusor (EC50 = 0.93, 11, 14, and 160 nM) and higher potency at beta (3)-adrenoceptors than at beta (1) or beta (2) The intravenous administration of 3h significantly reduced the urinary bladder pressure in anesthetized male rats (ED50 = 48 mug/kg) without cardiovascular side effects. This article is the first report of structure-activity relationships (SAR) concerning beta (3)-adrenoceptor agonists as agents for the treatment of urinary frequency and incontinence.

Isochromanone is the core structure of many bioactive compounds. Direct oxidation of isochromans is one of leading methods for the construction of isochromanones, while most established processes remain suffering from the use of environmentally unfriendly metal oxidants, harsh reaction conditions, and the difficulty in catalyst recycling and product separation. Herein, we report a convenient, cost-effective
