Summary for Patent: 5,096,890

Title:	Pyrrolidine derivatives
Abstract:	Compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R, Y and R.sup.1 are as defined in the specification. These compounds are muscarinic receptor antagonists which are selective for smooth muscle muscarinic sites over cardiac muscarinic sites, and are useful in the treatment of diseases associated with altered motility on tone of smooth muscle, including irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, urinary incontinence, oesophageal achalasia and chronic obstructive airways disease.

Assignee:	Pfizer Inc. (New York, NY)
Application Number:	07/493,068
Patent Claims:	1. A compound of the formula: ##STR43## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Y is a direct link, --CH.sub.2 --, --(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --, --CH.sub.2 O-- or --CH.sub.2 S--; R is --CONH.sub.2 ; and R.sup.1 is a group of the formula: ##STR44## where X and X.sup.1 are each independently O or CH.sub.2 ; m is 1, 2 or 3; and "Het" is pyridyl, pyrazinyl or thienyl. 2. A compound as claimed in claim 1 in which R.sup.1 is a group of the formula: ##STR45## where X, X.sup.1, "Het" and m are as defined in claim 1. 3. A compound as claimed in claim 2, in which R.sup.1 is a group of the formula: ##STR46## 4. A compound as claimed in claim 1, in which Y is a direct link or --CH.sub.2 --. 5. A compound as claimed in claim 4, in which Y is --CH.sub.2 --. 6. A compound as claimed in claim 1, which is in the 3R,S-(racemic) or 3S-form. 7. 3-(R,S )-(1-carbamoyl-1,1-diphenylmethyl)-1-[2-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-yl)ethyl]p yrrolidine or 3-(S)-(-)-(1-carbamoyl-1,1-diphenylmethyl)-1-[2-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-y l)ethyl]pyrrolidine. 8. A pharmaceutical composition comprising muscarinic receptor antagonizing effective amount of a compound according to claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier. 9. A method of treating a disease associated with altered motility or tone of smooth muscle in a mammal comprising administering to said mammal a muscarinic receptor antagonizing amount of a compound according to claim 1. 10. A method according to claim 9, wherein the disease is irritable bowel syndrome.
