In an effort to discover potent, orally bioavailable compounds for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT), we developed a class of gap-junction modifiers typified by GAP-134 (1, R(1)=OH, R(2)=NH(2)), a compound currently under clinical evaluation. Selected compounds with the desired in-vitro profile demonstrated positive in vivo results in the mouse CaCl(2) a...

As a part of our ongoing research in the exploration of novel antimicrobial agents, we report herein novel synthesis of hybrid molecules 4-methyl-7-(2-oxo-2-(5-(substitutedthio)-1,3,4oxadiazol-2-yl)ethoxy)-2H-chromen-2-ones and 4-substitutedbenzylidene-3-methyl-1-(2-((4methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-7-yl)oxy)acetyl)-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-ones by combining coumarin ring with 1,3,4-oxadiazole and pyrazole sc...

In the crystal, C(20)H(15)N(7)O(6)S, the dihedral angle between the oxadiazole and triazine rings is 86.94 (7)°. The oxadiazole ring makes a dihedral angle of 52.96 (8)° with the phenyl ring, while the triazine ring makes a dihedral angle of 82.08 (7)° with the benzene ring. In the structure, mol-ecules are linked by a pair of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an inversion dimer. The dimers are fur...

Virtual screening of the Maybridge library of ca. 70 000 compounds was performed using a similarity filter, docking, and molecular mechanics-generalized Born/surface area postprocessing to seek potential non-nucleoside inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (NNRTIs). Although known NNRTIs were retrieved well, purchase and assaying of representative, top-scori...
