Abstract
The results obtained in this investigation have shown 1-(3-aminophenyl)-2-aminoethanol and the corresponding -2-methylamino and -2-ethylamino analogs to be effective pressor agents. The primary amine is most pressor and this activity is diminished by alkyl substitution. 1-(3-Aminophenyl)-2-isopropylaminoethanol is depressor. The substitution of the ring with a m -amino group causes a small increase in pressor potency; with a m -hydroxyl group a large increase in pressor potency. Neither the pressor amine, 1-(3-aminophenyl)-2-aminoethanol, nor its depressor homolog, 1-(3-aminophenyl)-2-isopropylaminoethanol, were effective in preventing bronchoconstriction in guinea pigs exposed to a histamine aerosol. The acute toxicity (i.p. and i.v. in mice) appears to be less than that of the corresponding unsubstituted and m -hydroxy analogs.
1-(3-aminophenyl)-2-aminoethanol and its related compounds are effective pressor agents, but do not prevent bronchoconstriction and have less acute toxicity than unsubstituted and m-hydroxy analogs.
