This invention relates to compounds which are generally IP receptor antagonists and which are represented by Formula I: wherein:

Carboxylic acid derivatives as IP antagonists

Compounds effective as IP receptor modulators, particularly IP receptor antagonists, that are of the formula I: wherein A, R, R, Rand Rare as defined in the specification; and individual isomers, racemic or non-racemic mixtures of isomers, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and methods for their use as therapeutic agents.

Substituted aryl amides as IP antagonists

Compounds represented by Formula I: which are useful as are alpha-1A/B adrenoceptor antagonists, to methods of treating conditions associated with the activity of alpha-1A/B adrenoceptors, and to methods of making said compounds, wherein Ar, Z, R, R', Rand Rare as defined herein.

Arylamine-substituted quinazolinone compounds useful as alpha 1A/B adrenergic receptor antagonists

Compounds effective as IP receptor modulators, particularly IP receptor antagonists, that are of the formula I:wherein A, R, R, Rand Rare as defined in the specification; and individual isomers, racemic or non-racemic mixtures of isomers, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof. Also disclosed are pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and methods for their use as therapeutic agents.

Substituted arylamides as IP antagonists

The present invention concerns novel compounds represented by the Formula: ##STR1## wherein: A is R.sup.1.sub.q (R.sup.3 R.sup.60 N).sub.m (Z)(NR.sup.2).sub.n ; m and q are each 0 or 1, with the proviso that when q is 1, m is 0 and when q is 0, m is 1; Z is C.dbd.O or SO.sub.2 ; n is 1 with the proviso that, when Z is C.dbd.O, m is 1; X is --NH--, --CH.sub.2 --, or --OCH.sub.2 --; Y is [2-imidazoline, 2-oxazolin] 2-thiazoline, [or 4-imidazole] R.sup.1 is H, lower alkyl, or phenyl, with the proviso that, when R.sup.1 is H, m is 1; R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.60 are each independently H, lower alkyl, or phenyl; R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, and R.sup.7 are each independently hydrogen, lower alkyl, --CF.sub.3, lower alkoxy, halogen, phenyl, lower alkeny, hydroxyl, lower alkylsulfonamido, or lower cycloalkyl, wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.7 optionally may be taken together to form alkylene or alkenylene of 2 to 3 atoms in an unsubstituted or optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered ring, wherein the optional substituents on the ring are halo, lower alkyl, or --CN, with the proviso that, when R.sup.7 is hydroxyl or lower alkylsulfonamido, then X is not --NH-- when Y is 2-imidazoline. The compounds include pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the above. In the above formula A may be, for example, (R.sup.1 SO.sub.2 NR.sup.2 --), (R.sup.3 R.sup.60 NSO.sub.2 NR.sup.2 --), or (R.sup.3 R.sup.60 NCONR.sup.2 --). The invention also includes the use of the above compounds, and compositions containing them, as alpha.sub.1A/1L agonists in the treatment of various disease states such as urinary incontinence, nasal congestion, priapism, depression, anxiety, dementia, senility, Alzheimer's, deficiencies in attentiveness and cognition, and eating disorders such as obesity, bulimia, and anorexia.
