Popis: The p ‐aminobenzyl analogues ( 8a and 8b , respectively) of the cardioselective β ‐adrenergic receptor antagonists practolol and atenolol were prepared from the corresponding phenoxymethyloxiranes in 30 and 13% yields, respectively. The dissociation constants for the β ‐adrenergic receptor were measured in membrane preparations of rat heart and lung, in membranes from the heart (which contain mostly β 1 ‐adrenergic receptors), the affinities of the derivatives and parent compounds were similar. By contrast, in membranes from the lung (which contain mostly β 2 ‐adrenergic receptors), the derivatives were more potent than the parent compounds. Thus, the cardioselectivities of the p ‐aminobenzyl analogues 8a and 8b were about one‐sixth those of the respective parents.
