- Synthesis and SAR studies of novel triazolopyrimidine derivatives as potent, orally active angiotensin II receptor antagonists
-
The synthesis and pharmacological activity of new nonpeptide angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonists are presented. These [1,2,4]-triazolo[1,5- c]pyrimidine and 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-c]-pyrimidine derivatives represent a new class of bicyclic antagonists that produced a potent, oral antihypertensive activity in the renal artery-ligated rat model. In vitro, they displayed a high affinity for rat adrenal AII receptors and were found to be specific for the AT1 receptor subtype. A SAR study has shown the importance of the 8- [2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]-methyl for oral activity and the critical role of alkyl substituents at 5- and 7-positions. No significant differences were found between the [1,5-c] and [4,3-c] series. UP 269-6 (5- methyl-7-n-propyl-8-[[2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl]-[1,2,4]- triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-2(3H)-one, derivative 29) was selected as the lead compound. It was shown to be a highly potent antihypertensive derivative (decrease in mean arterial pressure of 39.6 ± 7.2 mmHg at 1 mg/kg po in renal artery-ligated rat) with a long duration of action which displayed a high affinity for adrenal AII receptors with a marked selectivity for the AT1 receptor subtype (K(i) AT1 = 24 nM; K(i) AT2 = 79 200 nM). This compound is currently undergoing extensive pharmacological and clinical development.
