Abstract
The methylendioxyphenyl group is present in a number of endothelin rec eptor antagonists thus far reported. By means of a Kohonen neural netw ork we discovered with a benzothiadiazole a bioisosteric replacement i nstead. This group should be devoid of the negative metabolic interact ions with cytochrome P450 ascribed to methylendioxyphenyl in vivo. The synthesis of a potent benzothiadiazole analogue EMD 122801 together w ith in vitro studies of different methylendioxyphenyl, benzothiadiazol e and benzofurazan derivatives is described.
