Arzneimittelforschung. 1990 Feb;40(2 Pt 1):122-5.

Abstract

A series of xanthone 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives were prepared. The compounds were evaluated for inotropic, chronotropic and calcium antagonistic properties. The tested compounds are weak calcium antagonists but exert potent selective bradycardic effects.
