Message definition (Discovery and development of angiotensin receptor blockers)
Replacing the 2-carboxy-benzamido-group with a 2-carboxy-[[phenyl]]-group created the [[lipophilic]] [[biphenyl]]-containing EXP-7711, which exhibited good oral activity but slightly less affinity for the AT<sub>1</sub> receptor. <br />
 
Then the [[chemical polarity|polar]] carboxyl group was replaced with a more lipophilic [[tetrazole]] group in order to increase oral bioavailability and duration of action further and the compound thus formed was named [[losartan]]. This development took place in 1986 and losartan became the first successful [[angiotensin II receptor antagonist|Ang II antagonist]] drug, approved as such in the United States in 1995 and was marketed by [[Merck & Co.|Merck]].
