Allosteric potentiators of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGlu2). Part 2: 4-Thiopyridyl acetophenones as non-tetrazole containing mGlu2 receptor potentiators
摘要:
We have identified and synthesized a series of 4-thiopyridyl acetophenones as positive allosteric potentiators of the metabotropic glutamate receptor 2. Structure-activity relationship studies directed toward replacement of the tetrazole in the initial lead led to the discovery of 16 (EC50 = 340 nM), which showed improved brain penetration over the initial lead.
