Abstract

Random screening of compounds in an ETA receptor binding assay led to the discovery of a class of benzenesulfonamide ligands. Optimization led to the development of 5-amino-N-(3,4-dimethyl-5-isoxazolyl)-1-naphthalenesulfonamides which were functional antagonists. Structural features which were important to activity included a 1,5-substitution pattern on the naphthalene ring; a sulfonamide NH with a pK value < 7; an amine, preferably with alkyl substituents, at the 5-position; and methyl groups on both the 3- and 4-positions of the isoxazole.
