Synthesis of 3-phenylnaphthalenic derivatives as new selective MT2 melatoninergic ligands
摘要:
A series of naphthalenic analogues of melatonin were prepared and evaluated as melatonin receptor MT(2) selective ligands. Activity and MT(2) selectivity can be modulated with suitable variations of the C-3 phenyl and the acyl group on the C-1 side chain. Surprisingly, in contrast with what had been previously described in other series (2-benzylindoles, 2-benzylbenzofurans and 3-phenyltetralins), the presence of a C-3 phenyl with a functional group on the meta position seems to be primordial for MT2 afinity and selectivity. Indeed,N-[2-( 3-(3-hydroxymethylphenyl)-7-methoxynaphth-1-yl) ethyl] acetamide (21) is one of the best MT(2) selective ligands described until now and behaves as an antagonist. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
