    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a class of 2-aminothiazole derivatives which have recently been identified as allosteric enhancers of the A1? adenosine receptor. These compounds, and therapeutic compositions containing them, are useful for treating conditions in which activation of the A1? adenosine receptor would be beneficial, for example, those conditions in which stimulation of angiogenesis would improve blood flow to ischemic tissues.
