Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2013 Feb 1;23(3):706-10. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2012.11.098. Epub 2012 Dec 3.

Abstract

Diphenylphosphinic amides and diphenylphosphine oxides have been synthesized and tested as inhibitors of the Kv1.5 potassium ion channel as a possible treatment for atrial fibrillation. In vitro structure-activity relationships are discussed and several compounds with Kv1.5 IC(50) values of <0.5 μM were discovered. Selectivity over the ventricular IKs current was monitored and selective compounds were found. Results from a rabbit PD-model are included.
