Abstract

The present invention relates to compounds useful as potassium channel inhibitors to treat cardiac arrhythmias, and the like.

Claims (11)

1. A method of treating cardiac arrhythmia in a mammal which comprises administering a compound selected from the group consisting of 7-methoxy-2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 7-methoxy-2-methyl-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydroquinazolin-1-ium chloride; 2-tert-butyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 2-cyclohexyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; and 3-cyclopropyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione in a therapeutically effective amount.

2. A method of claim 1 , wherein the cardiac arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation.

3. A method of claim 1 , wherein the cardiac arrhythmia is selected from the group consisting of atrial flutter, atrial arrhythmia and supraventricular tachycardia.

4. A method of preventing cardiac arrhythmia, a thromboembolic event, or congestive heart failure which comprises administering a compound selected from the group consisting of 7-methoxy-2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 7-methoxy-2-methyl-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydroquinazolin-1-ium chloride; 2-tert-butyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 2-cyclohexyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; and 3-cyclopropyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione in an amount that is effective at inhibiting K V 1.5.

5. A method of claim 4 , wherein the cardiac arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation.

6. A method of claim 4 , wherein the cardiac arrhythmia is selected from the group consisting of atrial flutter, atrial arrhythmia and supraventricular tachycardia.

7. A method of claim 4 , wherein the condition is a thromboembolic event.

8. A method of claim 7 , wherein the thromboembolic event is a stroke.

9. A method of claim 4 , wherein the condition is congestive heart failure.

10. A compound selected from the group consisting of 7-methoxy-2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 7-methoxy-2-methyl-4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydroquinazolin-1-ium chloride; 2-tert-butyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; 2-cyclohexyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazolin-4(1H)-one; and 3-Cyclopropyl-7-methoxy-1-phenylquinazoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione.

11. A pharmaceutical formulation comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and the compound of claim 10 or a pharmaceutically acceptable crystal form or hydrate thereof.
