A set of chiral imidazolylpropylguanidines and 2-aminothiazolylpropylguanidines bearing N(G)-3-phenyl- or N(G)-3-cyclohexylbutanoyl residues was synthesized and investigated for histamine H(2) receptor (H(2)R) agonism (guinea pig (gp) right atrium, GTPase assay on recombinant gp and human (h)H(2)R) and for hH(2)R selectivity compared to hH(1)R, hH(3)R and hH(4)R. In contrast to previous studies on arpromidine derivatives, the present investigation of acylguanidine-type compounds revealed only very low eudismic ratios (1.1-3.

Several of the antimalarial drugs are chiral and administered as the racemate. These drugs include chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, quinacrine, primaquine, mefloquine, halofantrine, lumefantrine and tafenoquine. Quinine and quinidine are also stereoisomers, although they are given separately rather than in combination.

The percentage of chiral entities among drug, narcotic drug and psychotropic compounds is steadily increasing. Receptors of the human body recognize the enantiomeric forms of constitutionally identical compounds as entirely different chemical agents. Based upon these facts, this paper reports the percentage of chiral compounds in the various pharmacological classes, and related data.
