Synthesis and Antihypertensive Activities of New 1, 4-Dihydropyridine Containing Nitroimidazolyl Substituent with a Nitrooxy Group at the 3-Ester Position
New analogues of nifedipine, in which the ortho nitrophenyl group of position 4 is replaced by 1‐methyl‐4‐nitro‐5‐imidazolyl or 1‐methyl‐5‐imidazolyl with a nitrooxy group at the 3‐ester position were synthesized, and the antihypertensive activity of the compounds was examined by the tail‐cuff method and compared with TNG and nifedipine. Compounds 11g, 11i—11m, 110, 11r, and 11v showed activity similar
