A series of compounds possessing an N-substituted indoline-5-sulfonamide ph
armacophore was prepared and evaluated for their human beta(3) adrenergic r
eceptor agonist activity. The SAR of a wide range of urea and heterocyclic
substituents is discussed. 4-Octyl thiazole compound 8c was the most potent
and selective compound in the series, with 2800-fold selectivity over beta
(1) binding and 1400-fold selectivity over beta(2) binding (C) 1999 Elsevie
