This study presents the synthesis of new 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) derivatives which are phenoxy- and alkoxyalkyl esters of 2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-difluoromethoxyphenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dica rbo xylic acid and reports on the biological activity of the compounds. It was found that the DHP derivatives showed high affinity to the DHP receptor of rat brain membranes and antagonize potently the potassium depolarization-induced vasospasm in a fashion compatible with the assumption of a calcium entry blockade. The higher vasodilating potency of especially compound III for the cerebral vasculature might represent an improved selectivity profile due to specific substitution patterns of the DHP molecule by increasing lipophilicity. Thus, the new DHP derivatives might be useful as therapeutic agents for hypertension and impaired cerebral microcirculation.

D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
D011725 Pyridines Compounds with a six membered aromatic ring containing NITROGEN. The saturated version is PIPERIDINES.
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.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
