[Preparation and pharmacologic profile of derivatives of alkoxyphenylcarbamic acid with potential effects on the cardiovascular system].

Abstract

In a systematic study of the relationship between the chemical structure and beta-adrenolytic activity, eleven derivatives of the 4-alkoxysubstituted phenylcarbamic acids were prepared. The beta-adrenolytic efficiency of the compounds was studied in the isolated spontaneously beating guinea-pig atria and expressed as pA2 values against isoprenaline tachycardia. Negative chronotropic and antidysrhythmic activity were also evaluated. All of the compounds studied were local anesthetically active and their indexes of efficiency were 3-50 fold higher in comparison with standards cocaine and procaine. The acute toxicity of the compounds was within the acceptable limits.
