Prostaglandin F2? diethyl amide (PGF2?-NEt2) is an analog of PGF2? (Item No. 16010) in which the C-1 carboxyl group has been modified to an N-diethyl amide. PG esters have been shown to have ocular hypotensive activity.{8837} PG N-ethyl amides were recently introduced as alternative PG hypotensive prodrugs.{8941} Studies in our laboratories have shown that bovine and human corneal tissue converts the N-ethyl amides of various PGs to the free acids with a conversion efficiency of about 4 µg/g corneal tissue/hr.{9311} However, we find that dialkyl amides such as PGF2?-NEt2 are inert to corneal amidase activity, and are not converted in any detectable amount to the corresponding free acids. These compounds may therefore be useful tools in elucidating the claim that PG amides have intrinsic intraocular hypotensive activity.
