Current drugs including beta-agonists have limited smooth muscle relaxant effects on human small airways. Yet this is a major site of obstruction in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study explores human small airway relaxant effects of RESPIR

3-Fluoromethyl-7-(N-substituted aminosulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines (14, 16, and 18-22) are highly potent and selective inhibitors of phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PNMT). Molecular modeling studies with 3-fluoromethyl-7-(N-alkyl aminosulfonyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines, such as 16, suggested that the sulfonamide -NH- could form a hydrogen bond with the side chain of

A series of 1-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline and 8-methyl-1-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives was evaluated for affinity to the PCP binding site of the NMDA receptor complex. The (S)-configured tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative (S)-4 e x HCl bearing a 2-methylphenyl substituent in position 1 of the heterocyclic ring

We herein report a robust and efficient synthetic route to highly functionalized enantiopure 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs) from Garner aldehyde. We utilized the inherent chirality of Garner aldehyde through 1,2- and 1,3-/1,4-asymmetric inductions iteratively to obtain 1,2,3,4-tetrasubstitued THIQs using rigid and isolable
The roots and aerial parts of Eschscholzia californica Cham. (Papaveraceae) were extracted with ethanol. Repeated column chromatography, preparative TLC, and crystallization led to the isolation of fourteen isoquinoline alkaloids, the structures of which were determined on the basis of spectroscopic
