Experiments on narcotized cats demonstrated that the derivatives of 2-mercaptobenzimidazole possessing the properties of specific bradycardic agents and coded as CM-251, CM-266, and CM-345, reduce the mean rise of segment ST on numerous leads of the epicardial electrogram during 5-min occlusion of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery. The agents stabilize the heart pumping and contracting functions under conditions of 30- and 60-min reperfusion of the coronary artery, respectively. It is concluded on the grounds of the obtained data that the 2-mercaptobenzimidazole derivatives possess a marked anti-ischemic action.
