Synthesis and evaluation of 7-substituted-3-cyclobutylamino-4H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide derivatives as KATP channel agonists

Synthesis of 3-Amino-1,2,4-benzothiadi- azine 1,1-Dioxides via a Tandem Aza-Wittig/Heterocumulene Annulation

[reaction: see text] Reaction of o-azidobenzenesulfonamides with polymer-supported triphenylphosphine affords the corresponding iminophosphoranes. Subsequent reaction with isocyanates gives 3-amino-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxides in high yields and purities. The reaction has been successfully applied to the synthesis of derivatives with various substituents at the 2- and 3-positions and in the benzenoid ring.

3-Trifluoromethyl-4-nitro-5-arylpyrazoles are novel KATP channel agonists

This communication describes the discovery and synthesis of a series of 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitro-5-arylpyrazoles as potent K(ATP) channel agonists. The most potent compound reported is ca. 100-fold more potent than diazoxide and exhibits selectivity for the SUR1 K(ATP) channel subtype. The 4-nitro substitutent on the pyrazole ring was required for activity, and limited SAR suggests that the de-protonated pyrazole maybe the active species.
