3,5-Di-substituted phenylcyanoguanidine derivatives with halogen, cyano, and/or nitro groups at the 3- and 5-positions of the benzene ring exhibited very strong smooth muscle relaxation activity in vitro, as compared to pinacidil. Among them, N-(3-chloro-5-cyanophenyl)-N'-cyano-N''-tert- pentylguanidine (5s) showed 27-fold more potent activity than pinacidil, and exhibited a stronger and more lasting antihypertensive effect than pinacidil by oral administration to spontaneously hypertensive rats. We propose a new pharmacophore model in which the essential factors for binding to the potassium channel are an NH and a bulky alkyl group.

1-(2-Nitrophenyl)-5-phenyltetrazole (5b) decomposes when heated to give nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and 2-phenylbenzotriazole (6) in high yield.This new molecular rearrangement proceeds via 2-nitrophenyl(phenyl)carbodi-imide (8).Other precursors of this carbodi-imide, i.e. oxadiazolone (10), oxadiazolethione (11), oxathiadiazole 2-oxide (12), and the aminimide (16), and carbodi-imide itself, all give 2-phenylbenzotriazole (6) on thermolysis, the last three in high yield.This reaction is general for diarylcarbodi-imides with an ortho nitro group, and their precursors, and it provides a useful new route to 2-arylbenzotriazoles.A sequence of electrocyclic ring closing and opening reactions (Scheme 5) is proposed as the mechanism of this process.The key intermediate, 2-phenyl-1,2,4-benzotriazin-3-one 1-oxide (19) has been isolated from a careful thermolysis of (12) in toluene; in solution it is in reversible equlibrium with the ring-opened form (20).This new nitro-carbodi-imide group interaction has been extended to the more stable nitrobiphenyl(phenyl)carbodi-imide (25) and nitronaphthyl(phenyl)carbodi-imide (24) which, on flash vacuum pyrolysis, give benzimidazophenanthridine (29) and benzindazole 1-oxide (32) respectively, in new rearrangements.
