In this article the synthesis and histaminergic H1 activity of a series of substituted 2-phenylhistamines are described. It appeared that substitution of the phenyl ring of these compounds influences the H1 activity substantially. In general, substitution in para position causes a decrease in H1 activity. However, in the meta-substituted members both increases and decreases of H1 activity have been observed; thus the meta nitro and meta methoxy derivatives are four times as potent as the parent 2-phenylhistamine. As far as investigated, neither H1 nor H3 activity could be established.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007082	Ileum	The distal and narrowest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between the JEJUNUM and the ILEOCECAL VALVE of the LARGE INTESTINE.

D009130	Muscle, Smooth	Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D011969	Receptors, Histamine H1	A class of histamine receptors discriminated by their pharmacology and mode of action. Most histamine H1 receptors operate through the inositol phosphate/diacylglycerol second messenger system. Among the many responses mediated by these receptors are smooth muscle contraction, increased vascular permeability, hormone release, and cerebral glyconeogenesis.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
