Popis: A series of selenophene analogues of the thiophene-containing antihypertensives milfasartan and eprosartan were prepared and tested for AT 1 receptor antagonist properties. All four selenophene compounds proved to be potent AT 1 receptor antagonists, with pK B estimates indicating that these selenides are at least as effective as the thiophene parent compounds at blocking AT 1 receptor mediated responses. These results reveal that replacement of sulfur with selenium in thiophene-containing sartans does not interfere with sartan activity.
