Furo[3,4-d]pyrimidinones were found to be metabolites of dihydropyrimidinones such as 1a-b that are subtype-selective antagonists of the α(1a)-adrenergic receptor. A versatile synthesis that provides access to furo[3,4-d]pyrimidinones in high yield and in enantiomerically pure forms is described along with structure-activity relationships in the series.
