Several series of 2-aryl or heterocyclic-imidazoline compounds have been prepared and evaluated in vitro as imidazoline sites (I1 and I2) and alpha-adrenergic (alpha1 and alpha2) receptor ligands. Their pKi values indicate that linkage of the imidazoline moiety at the 2-position with an aromatic substituent dramatically decreases alpha-adrenergic affinity. I1 sites are more accessible by phenyl imidazolines substituted by a methyl or a methoxy group at the ortho or meta position. Indeed, 2-(2'-methoxyphenyl)-imidazoline (17) is one of the best I1 ligands ever reported (pKi = 8.53 and I1/I2 > 3388). On the other hand, I2 selectivity increases in the presence of a methyl group in the para position. The original compound, 2-(3'-fluoro-4'-tolyl)-imidazoline (31) is a new potent ligand for the I2 sites with high selectivity (pKi = 8.53 and I2/I1 > 3388).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007093 Imidazoles Compounds containing 1,3-diazole, a five membered aromatic ring containing two nitrogen atoms separated by one of the carbons. Chemically reduced ones include IMIDAZOLINES and IMIDAZOLIDINES. Distinguish from 1,2-diazole (PYRAZOLES).
D007672 Kidney Cortex The outer zone of the KIDNEY, beneath the capsule, consisting of KIDNEY GLOMERULUS; KIDNEY TUBULES, DISTAL; and KIDNEY TUBULES, PROXIMAL. Cortex, Kidney
D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.
