Abstract
The potential toxicological liabilities of the M-2 muscarinic antagonist I were addressed by replacing the methylenedioxyphenyl moiety with a p-methox yphenyl group, resulting in M-2 selective compounds such as 3. Several halo genated naphthamide derivatives of 3 were studied in order to improve the p harmacokinetic profile via blockage of oxidative metabolism. Compound 4 dem onstrated excellent M2 affinity and selectivity, human microsomal stability , and oral bioavailability in rodents and primates. (C) 2001 Elsevier Scien ce Ltd. All rights reserved.
