A series of alpha(1a) receptor antagonists derived from a 4-aryl-3,4-dihydr
opyridine-2-one heterocycle is disclosed. Potency in the low nanomolar to p
icomolar range along with high selectivity was obtained. In vivo efficacy i
n a prostate contraction model in rats was observed with a few derivatives.
