Dihydropyrimidinones, such as 1, represent a novel class of α(1a) adrenoceptor antagonists with potential for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (see part 1 of this series). Analysis of the metabolites of I revealed that 4-methoxycarbonyl-4-phenylpiperidine is formed as the major metabolite and is an agonist at the μ-opioid receptor. To circumvent any potential liability resulting from the metabolite, we decided to identify alternate templates devoid of agonist activity at the μ-opioid receptor to replace the 4-methoxycarbonyl-4-phenylpiperidine moiety. The present study describes the synthesis and SAR of dihydropyrimidinones linked to substituted 4-phenylpiperazine containing side chains. Compound (+)-38 was identified as a lead compound with a binding and functional profile comparable to that of 1. The putative metabolite 2-carboxamidophenylpiperazine has negligible affinity for the μ-opioid receptor.

This invention is directed to dihydropyrimidine compounds of the following formula: which are selective antagonists for human α1Areceptors. This invention is also related to uses of these compounds for lowering intraocular pressure, inhibiting cholesterol synthesis, relaxing lower urinary tract tissue, the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, impotency, cardiac arrhythmia and for the treatment of any disease where antagonism of the α1Areceptor may be useful. The invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of the above-defined compounds and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
