<p>Pilocarpine analogues are provided having the structure (I), where one of R1 or R2 is an alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, and so forth, and the corresponding secondary alkyl groups, an aralkyl, such as benzyl, phenylethyl, phenylpropyl, and the corresponding secondary aralkyl residues, or a cycloalkyl having less than about 12 carbon atoms. R3 has at least two carbon atoms but less than about 9. These pilocarpine analogues have improved duration of biological activity with respect to pilocarpine. A particularly preferred compound is a muscarinic agonist equipotent with pilocarpine, where R2 is methyl, and R3 is ethyl.</p> |
