title: Novel 2-imidazoles as potent and selective alpha1A adrenoceptor partial agonists.
abstract: Novel 2-imidazoles have been identified as potent partial agonists of the alpha(1A) adrenergic receptor, with good selectivity over the alpha(1B), alpha(1D) and alpha(2A) receptor sub-types. Sulfonamide 23 possessed attractive drug-like properties with respect to physicochemical and ADME properties and wide ligand selectivity.
