N2-(4-Substituted-2,6-dichlorophenyl)-N1,N1-dimethylformamidines as antihypertensive and diuretic agents. 1984

W E Meyer, and A S Tomcufcik, and P S Chan, and J E Emma

The synthesis of a series of N2-[4-[(arylmethyl)amino]-2, 6-dichlorophenyl]-N1,N1-dimethylformamidines that caused marked blood pressure lowering and/or diuresis in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) is reported. Diuretic activity was not always associated with acute antihypertensive activity. Central nervous system effects, most notably sedation, were observed. Compound 9d, which lowered arterial blood pressure 37 mmHg in SHR when dosed at 100 mg/kg, was further evaluated in chronic hypertensive dogs because of apparent minimal CNS effects. A reduction in arterial blood pressure of 32 mmHg at 1.0 mg/kg during a 6-h postdosing interval was observed. This response was unrelated to alpha- or beta-adrenergic blockade, angiotensin I antagonism, or neuronal or ganglionic blockade. CNS effects were also observed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more.

D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
