Supplementary Material for: Characterization of New Organic Nitrate Hybrid Drugs Covalently Bound to Valsartan and Cilostazol

Background and Purpose: Organic nitrates represent a group of nitrovasodilators that are clinically used for the treatment of ischemic heart disease. With the present studies we synthesized and characterized new organic nitrate hybrid molecules. Compounds CLC-1265 (valsartan mononitrate) and CLC-1280 (valsartan dinitrate) are derivatives of the angiotensin receptor blocker valsartan, with CLC-1265 containing a single organic nitrate linker and CLC-1280 also containing a second, different linker. Compounds CLC-2000 (cilostazol mononitrate) and CLC-2100 (cilostazol dinitrate) are nitrate derivatives of the phosphodiesterase III inhibitor cilostazol. All compounds are designed as hybrid molecu…
