Abstract: Structure-activity relationships (SAR) of fused 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c ]pyrimidine were performed. Various substituents were introduced into the heterocyclic ring to improve the potency of adenosine A(3) receptor binding affinity and A(3)-selectivity against other subtypes. Potent and selective A(3) receptor antagonists were identified and were evaluated in a monkey model of intraocular pressure by eye-drop administration. As a result, compound 1c (OT-7999) was found to significantly decrease intraocular pressure in the animal model.
