Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular modelling studies on benzothiadiazine derivatives as PDE4 selective inhibitors

A series of 2,1,3- and 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine derivatives (BTDs) were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity versus enzymatic isoforms PDE3, PDE4 and PDE7. The antioxidant compound 13 was found active and selective at micromolar level versus PDE4.
