The synthesis of several 3-alkylamino-2-hydroxypropyl heteroaryl ethers (13-15, 17, and 18) is described. These compounds were prepared by the alkylamination of the corresponding glycidyl ethers (6-8, 10, and 11), which in turn were obtained from the requisite heteroaryl halides and the sodium salt of glycidol. The above basic ethers exhibited beta-blocking activity, but the potency of the tested compounds was considerably less than that of propanolol. Only 3-tert-butylamino-2-hydroxyl-1-(1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-yl) propyl ether (13) showed some selective myocardial beta-blocking activity.

Aus den Heteroarylhalogeniden (I) und Glycidalkohol (II) werden Glyci‐ dylether (III) hergestellt, aus denen mit Isopropylamin oder tert.‐Butylamin ‐die Aminoalkohole (V) gebildet werden.
