L. Delcorona et al., SYNTHESIS AND PRELIMINARY DATA ON NEW SELECTIVE AND POTENT GASTRIC PROKINETIC SUBSTITUTED BENZAMIDES, European journal of medicinal chemistry, 28(5), 1993, pp. 419-425
A series of amino-halogen-N-[2-aminoethyl] benzamides was synthesized
and evaluated for enhancing gastric emptying. Compared to metocloprami
de, domperidone and bromopride, a number of compounds were shown to be
more active in enhancing gastric motility (rat stomach emptying), dev
oid of dopaminergic D2-receptor antagonism (rat apomorphine test) and
to be less toxic.
