On May 3, 2018, Harried, Scott S.; Resnick, Lynn; Topalov, George T.; Boyd, Steven A.; Belardi, Justin K.; Flentge, Charles A.; Hale, James S.; Mareska, David A.; Zhang, Kai published a patent.Name: 3-Chloro-4-nitrobenzonitrile The title of the patent was Preparation of benzoimidazolylamide derivatives for use as Kv7 potassium channel activators. And the patent contained the following:
Title compounds I [A = alkyl; X = H, F, alkyl, or (un)substituted Ph; Y = H, F, or a moiety having a mol. weight of 15 Da to 300 Da and consisting of 2-5 chem. elements, wherein the chem. elements are independently C, H, O, or F; Z = (un)substituted cyclobutyl, Ph, iso-Pr, or t-butyl; R1 = CN, OMe, CF3, etc.; R2, R3, and R4 independently = H, F, Cl, etc.], and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are prepared and disclosed as Kv7 potassium channel activators. Thus, e.g., II was prepared by a multistep procedure (preparation given). Select I were evaluated in Kv7.2/7.3 activation assays (data given). The experimental process involved the reaction of 3-Chloro-4-nitrobenzonitrile(cas: 34662-29-8).Name: 3-Chloro-4-nitrobenzonitrile
