Russian Chemical Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

The review considers and evaluates the methodology for the design of antiasthmatic bronchodilators, selective stimulants of β2-adrenergic receptors in bronchi (β2-agonists), for the treatment of bronchial asthma. The influence of the structure of the compounds on the resistance to the enzyme catechol-O-methyltransferase and their selectivity for β2-adrenoreceptors are described. Examples of the influence of the structure of the drugs on the duration of their action on β2-adrenoreceptors are given. The review presents schemes for the synthesis of drugs commonly used for the treatment of bronchial asthma, such as salbutamol and formoterol, which are shortand long-acting β2-agonists, respectively. Data on the selectivity and efficacy of action of medicinal drugs on β2-adrenergic receptors are considered.
