The natural endogenous hormone Aldosterone activates MR leading to chronic kidney disease, hypertension and congestive heart failure via electrolyte imbalance.There is a significant need for the synthesis of Oxazolidinediones and related compounds. This motivated us to develop of a method for the synthesis of functionalized Oxazolidinediones that could be used in the preparation of pharmacologically active compounds.en-USThe author of this work is the copyright owner.
