Abstract

Two diazabicyclic analogues of ranolazine, (S,S,S)-5 and (S,S,R)-5, and their epimeric mixture were synthesized. Furthermore, their vasomotor effects on rat aorta rings precontracted with phenylephrine were analyzed. These compounds showed vasodilating effects significantly greater than ranolazine. The vasodilating activities of these analogues have two components, one that depends on the endothelium, due to the release of NO, and another one due to a direct effect on the vascular smooth muscle. The compounds [(S,S,S)(S,S,R)]-5 and (S,S,R)-5 induce, in a manner similar to ranolazine, the release of a prostanoid from the cyclooxygenase pathway, whose vasoconstrictor effect is masked by the predominant vasodilation induced by these compounds.
