Combinatorial synthesis and screening of a chemical library of 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers

Bioorg Med Chem. 1998 Jul;6(7):883-9. doi: 10.1016/s0968-0896(98)00048-0.

Abstract

Solid-phase synthesis of a 300-member pharmacophore library of 1,4-dihydropyridines from keto ester, diketone and aldehyde building blocks on a cleavable amine polymeric support is described. Screening and serial deconvolution of the combinatorial library has resulted in identification of known and new potent calcium channel blockers.
