title: 2-alkyl-3-Alkylamino-2H-Benzo- and pyridothiadiazine 1,1-dioxides: from K+ATP channel openers to Ca++ channel blockers?
abstract: A series of 2-alkyl-3-alkylamino-2H-benzo- and 2-alkyl-3-alkylamino-2H-pyrido[4,3-e]-1,2,4-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides, structurally related to BPDZ 44 and BPDZ 73, two potent pancreatic B-cells K+ATP channel openers, were synthesized and tested on rat pancreatic islets (endocrine tissue) as well as on rat aorta rings (vascular smooth muscle tissue). Alkylation of the 2-position led to double bond tautomerization and formation of compounds with a 2H-conformation. In contrast to the previously described pyridothiadiazine dioxides, such as BPDZ 44, and 7-chlorobenzothiadiazine dioxides, such as BPDZ 73, the 2-alkyl-substituted analogs were found to be poorly active on the insulin releasing process although most drugs exhibited a vasorelaxant activity. As a result, the new 2-alkyl-substituted pyridinic compounds expressed a selectivity profile (vascular smooth muscle tissue vs pancreatic tissue) opposite to that of their non-alkyl-substituted counterparts, i.e. BPDZ 44. Additional investigations revealed that, in contrast to their non 2-alkyl-substituted analogs, the most interesting 2-methyl-substituted derivatives did not express the pharmacological profile of classical K+ATP channel openers. The pharmacological results rather suggest that alkylation of the 2-position of the thiadiazine ring led to drugs that could act as Ca2+ channel blockers rather than as potassium channel openers.
