P. Vicini et al., SYNTHESIS AND PRELIMINARY PHARMACOLOGICAL STUDY OF NEW AMIDINOBENZISOTHIAZOLES, European journal of medicinal chemistry, 28(12), 1993, pp. 955-961
Some new N-(1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl)amidines were synthesized and test
ed for antiinflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic and spasmolytic activi
ties in comparison with indomethacin and papaverine respectively. The
synthesis of the new compounds has been described. All the amidinobenz
isothiazoles showed remarkable analgesic action and an interesting ant
iphlogistic action, while only one drug displayed a certain antipyreti
c activity. As regards spasmolytic activity, 3 compounds out of 6 demo
nstrated a papaverine-like effect.
