The universal template approach provided a prospect of modifying methoctramine (2) structure. Thus, polyamines 3-7 were designed in which the flexibility of the diamino-hexane spacer of 2 was replaced by a bipiperidinyl moiety. In electrically stimulated guinea pig left atria, these novel polyamines, unlike prototype 2, displayed a potent intrinsic activity, which was in contrast with the muscarinic antagonism shown in binding studies by some of them (3 and 4) and was inhibited by benzalkonium chloride, an inhibitor of G(i) proteins.
