Abstract
N-(2,2-Dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran-4-yl)-4H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-3-carboxamides 1,1-dioxides were prepared and evaluated on rat uterus, rat aortic rings and rat pancreatic β-cells. Pharmacological studies conducted on rat uterus indicated that several of these original hybrid compounds displayed a strong myorelaxant activity. The most active compounds hold a bromine atom at the 6-position of the dihydrobenzopyran ring. Moreover, the compounds failed to display a marked inhibitory effect on insulin secretion and vascular myogenic activity. These features suggest that the 6-bromo compounds could be relatively selective towards the uterine smooth muscle.
