Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2002 Aug 19;12(16):2145-8. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(02)00347-5.

Abstract

The syntheses and biological activities of a novel series of 2,4- and 2,5-disubstituted thiophenes are reported. These analogues have shown excellent affinity and selectivity against alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor subtypes.
