Abstract: Kv1.5 potassium channel is reported as a potent and safe target for atrial fibrillation. CPUY11018 was proved it had moderate inhibition of Kv1.5. In order to improve the stability of CPUY11018, and investigate the structure-activity relationship, 4 series of benzamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated. Among them, 8c is a most potent inhibitor of Kv1.5.

Key words: Kv1.5, Ultra-rapid potassium current, Potassium channel, Atrial fibrillation
