Abstract
The synthesis and purinergic receptor binding of novel adenosine A3 ligands is described. Many selective A3 receptor agonists e.g. N-(3-iodobenzyl)adenosine-5'-methyluronamide (IB-MECA) contain a 4'-ribosylalkylamide moiety. We found that this amide and other 4'-functional groups could be replaced with an isosteric isoxazole, and the target molecules retained potent binding to the recombinant human A3 receptor.Entities:
