Patent number: 6143750Abstract: This invention relates to certain novel compounds and derivatives thereof, their synthesis, and their use as alpha 1a adrenergic receptor antagonists. One application of these compounds is in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. These compounds are selective in their ability to relax smooth muscle tissue enriched in the alpha 1a receptor subtype without at the same time inducing hypotension. One such tissue is found surrounding the urethral lining. Therefore, one utility of the instant compounds is to provide acute relief to males suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia, by permitting less hindered urine flow. Another utility of the instant compounds is provided by combination with a human 5-alpha reductase inhibitory compound, such that both acute and chronic relief from the effects of benign prostatic hyperplasia are achieved.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 1998Date of Patent: November 7, 2000Assignee: Merck & Co., Inc.Inventors: Michael A. Patane, Mark G. Bock

Patent number: 6075038Abstract: This invention relates to certain novel compounds and derivatives thereof, their synthesis, and their use as selective alpha-1a adrenergic receptor antagonists. One application of these compounds is in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. These compounds are selective in their ability to relax smooth muscle tissue enriched in the alpha 1a receptor subtype without at the same time inducing orthostatic hypotension. One such tissue is found surrounding the urethral fining. Therefore, one utility of the instant compounds is to provide acute relief to males suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia, by permitting less hindered urine flow. Another utility of the instant compounds is provided by combination with a human 5-alpha reductase inhibitory compound, such that both acute and chronic relief from the effects of benign prostatic hyperplasia are achieved.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 1997Date of Patent: June 13, 2000Assignee: Merck & Co., Inc.Inventors: Michael A.

Patent number: 5786472Abstract: The present invention provides a process for forming 5-(alkyl or alkoxy)carbonyl-6-alkyl-4-(aryl or alkyl)-3,4-2(1H)-dihydropyrimidinones by combining a .beta.-keto ester or diketone, an aldehyde and urea in the presence of a boron reagent, a metal salt (e.g., Cu.sub.2 O) and a catalyst (e.g., acid). The reaction is typically run in one pot in a solvent to afford dihydropyrimidinones in higher yields and with easier work up than previously known methods.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1996Date of Patent: July 28, 1998Assignee: Merck & Co., Inc.Inventors: Essa Hsinyi Hu, Daniel R.

Patent number: 5747490Abstract: This invention relates to certain novel compounds and derivatives thereof, their synthesis, and their use as selective alpha 1b adrenergic receptor antagonists. These compounds display submicromolar affinity for the human alpha 1b adrenergic receptor subtype while displaying at least five-fold lower affinity for the human alpha 1d and alpha 1a adrenergic receptor subtypes, and many other G-protein coupled human receptors. One application of these compounds is in the treatment of hypertension. More specifically, these compounds display selectivity for lowering blood pressure without, for example, substantially affecting urethral pressure.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 1996Date of Patent: May 5, 1998Assignee: Merck & Co., Inc.Inventors: Mark G.
