Novel nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonists containing carbonyl moiety as a hydrogen bond acceptor
摘要:
A novel series of alpha 4 beta 2 nAChR agonists lacking common pyridine or its bioisosteric heterocycle have been disclosed. Essential pharmacophoric elements of the series are exocyclic carbonyl moiety as a hydrogen bond acceptor and secondary amino group within diaza- or azabicyclic scaffold. Computer modeling studies suggested that molecular shape of the ligand also contributes to promotion of agonism. Proof of concept for improving working memory performance in a novel object recognition task has been demonstrated on a representative of the series, 3-propionyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octane (34).
