Popis: A series of phenoxyethylamine derivatives was designed and synthesized to discover potent and selective human α 1D adrenoceptor (α 1D adrenergic receptor; α 1D –AR) antagonists. Compound 7 was taken from our internal compound collection as an attractive starting point and exhibited moderate binding affinity for α 1D –AR and high selectivity against α 1A – and α 1B –ARs. We focused on modifying the 2-methylsulfonylbenzyl group of 7 to discover novel compounds structurally distinct from other reported α 1 –AR antagonists containing the phenoxyethylamine motif. Study of structure activity relationship guided by a targeted ligand-lipophilicity efficiency score led to the discovery of a novel scaffold of 3,4-dihydro-2 H -thiochromene 1,1-dioxide for selective α 1D –AR antagonists. Further optimization studies resulted in the identification of (4 S )- N 4 -[2-(2,5-difluorophenoxy)ethyl]- N 6 -methyl-3,4-dihydro-2 H -thiochromene-4,6-diamine 1,1-dioxide, ( S )– 41 , as a novel, highly potent and selective α 1D –AR antagonist. Herein, we provide details of the structure activity relationship of the phenoxyethylamine analog for the potency and selectivity.
