Abstract
4-({2-[Isobutyl(phenylsulfonyl)amino]-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy}methyl)benzoic acid (1) is a functional PGE2 antagonist selective for EP1 receptor subtype. Analogs of 1, in which the phenyl-sulfonyl moiety has been replaced with more hydrophilic heteroarylsulfonyl moieties, exhibited more optimized antagonist activity, while some of them showed in vivo antagonist activity. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies are also presented.
