Dihydropyrazolopyrimidines containing benzimidazoles as K(V)1.5 potassium channel antagonists.

摘要

Dihydropyrazolopyrimidines with a C6 heterocycle substituent were found to have high potency for block of K(V)1.5. Investigation of the substitution in the benzimidazole ring and the substituent in the 5-position of the dihydropyrazolopyrimidine ring produced 31a with an IC50 for K(V)1.5 block of 0.030muM without significant block of other cardiac ion channels. This compound also showed good bioavailability in rats and robust pharmacodynamic effects in a rabbit model.
