Abstract
A new series of 4-(2-pyridyl)-2,2-dimethylnaphthalen-1-one potassium c hannel activators has been prepared and their in vitro relaxant activi ties in isolated rat portal vein and guinea-pig tracheal spirals as we ll as their hypotensive and bronchodilatory effects have been evaluate d. Oxidation of the pyridyl nitrogen atom and a double bond between po sitions 3 and 4 provide compounds with some degree of airways selectiv ity.
