Abstract:
A series of xanthone derivatives were synthesized and examined for electrocardiographic, antiarrhythmic, hypotensive and anticonvulsant activities as well as for alpha(1)- and beta(1)-adrenergic binding affinities. Among the investigated compounds, some of them exhibited significant antiarrhythmic and/or hypotensive activity. The data obtained via receptor binding assay are in agreement with pharmacological results and could explain antiarrhythmic and/or hypotensive activity of the newly synthesized structures.
