7-Azaindole derivatives as potential partial nicotinic agonists
摘要:
We have investigated a series of 7-azaindoles as potential partial agonists of the alpha 4 beta 2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). Three series of 7-azaindole derivatives have been synthesized and evaluated for rat brain neuronal nicotinic receptor affinity and functional activity. Compound (+)-51 exhibited the most potent nAChR binding (K-i = 10 nM). Compound 30A demonstrated both moderate binding affinity and partial agonist potency, thus representing a promising lead for the indications of cognition and smoking cessation. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
