摘要:
The design synthesis and SAR of a series of chiral ring-constrained norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors with improved physicochemical properties is described. Typical compounds are potent (IC(50)s < 10 nM), selective against the other monoamine transporters, weak CYP2D6 inhibitors (IC(50)s > 1 mu M) and stable to oxidation by human liver microsomes. In addition, the compounds exhibit a favorable polarity pro. le. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
