    Abstract:
    A series of 5-substituted (3aS,7aR)-7a-methylperhydroinden-3a-ol derivatives bearing a 1(S)-(omega-aminoalkoxy)iminoalkyl or -alkenyl substituent was synthesized, starting from the Hajos-Parrish ketol 47, as simplified analogues of very potent 17beta-aminoalkyloximes with digitalis skeleton, previously reported. The target compounds were evaluated in vitro for displacement of the specific [3H]ouabain binding from the dog kidney Na(+),K(+)-ATPase receptor. Some of them revealed IC(50) values in the micromolar range. The most active compounds possess a cyclohexyl group in the 5(S) position and in position 1(S) the same aminoalkyloxime groups already reported for the digitoxigenin-like series in position 17beta. Although the ring conformation of these derivatives was comparable to that of uzarigenin, the binding affinities of the most active ones were 4/8-fold lower in comparison to that standard. Three compounds among those with the highest affinities were assayed in vitro for their inotropic activity on an electrically driven guinea pig left atrium and were found to be less potent than both digoxin, the most widely used inotropic agent, and the corresponding digitalis 17beta-aminoalkyloximes.
