Endothelin antagonists: evaluation of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole as a methylendioxyphenyl bioisoster.

The methylendioxyphenyl group is present in a number of endothelin receptor antagonists thus far reported. By means of a Kohonen neural network we discovered with a benzothiadiazole a bioisosteric replacement instead. This group should be devoid of the negative metabolic interactions with cytochrome P450 ascribed to methylendioxyphenyl in vivo. The synthesis of a potent benzothiadiazole analogue EMD 122801 together with in vitro studies of different methylendioxyphenyl, benzothiadiazole and benzofurazan derivatives is described.[1]
