Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of a Series of Quinazoline-2-carboxylic Acids and Quinazoline-2,4-diones as Glycine-NMDA Antagonists: A Pharmacophore Model Based Approach
The synthesis and glycine‐NMDA binding activity of a series of quinazoline‐2‐carboxylic acids 1 and quinazoline‐2,4‐diones 2, containing all the essential and optional pharmacophoric descriptors required by a putative glycine antagonistmodel, are reported. The binding results show that only three of the title compounds displayed micromolar receptor affinity, demonstrating how disappointing the synthesis
