2-phenylhistamines (halogen = Br (35) and I (36)) were equipotent with histamine, while 2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)histamine (2-[2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl]ethanamine (39)) was significantly more potent than histamine (39: pD2 = 6.81, relative activity = 128%). The 2-substituted histamine analogues were partial H1 receptor agonists on the endothelium-denuded isolated guinea pig aorta with

Substitutions on the 2-position of the imidizole ring of histamine have proven useful in a number of biochemical settings. Current art for the synthesis of these constructs relies upon a cumbersome and low-yielding condensation reaction. Here-in we report a new procedure for the synthesis of a series of substituted 2-phenylhistamines utilizing a microwave-promoted Suzukicoupling.
