Abstract

4-Phenyl-4H-pyrans have been identified as potent and specific IK(CA) channel blockers. Their synthesis and structure-activity relationships are described. A selected derivative, rac-11, reduces the infarct volume in a rat subdural hematoma model of traumatic brain injury after iv administration.
