To further explore the structure-activity relationships of β- adrenoceptor (β-AR) antagonists, a series of 25 para-substituted N- isopropylphenoxy-propanolamines were synthesised, nine of which are new compounds. All have been examined for their ability to antagonise β1-ARs in rat atria and β2-ARs in rat trachea. Substitution in the para-position of the phenyl ring is thought to confer β3-specificity and the selectivity of these compounds for the β1-AR ranges from 1.5-234. None of the compounds tested were selective for the β2-AR. Of the 25 compounds studied, 22 had reasonable (pA2 > 7) potencies for the rat β1-AR. Only compound 1 displayed reasonable (pA2 > 7) potency for the rat β2-AR. Twenty two compounds were used as the training set for comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) of antagonist potency (pA2) at the rat β1- and β2-ARs. The inclusion of a number of additional physical characteristics improved the QSAR analysis over models derived solely using the CoMFA electrostatic and steric fields. The final models predicted the β1- and β2-AR potency of the compounds in the training set with high accuracy (r2 = 0.93 and 0.86 respectively). The final β1-AR model predicted the β1-potencies of two out of the three test compounds, not included in the training set, with residual PA2 values 2-AR model (residual pA2 values -0.38).
