New 2-substituted 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzofuro[3,2- c ]pyridine having highly active and potent central α 2 -antagonistic activity as potential antidepressants
摘要:
The synthesis and biological activity of a series of benzofuro[3,2-c]pyridines and a benzothieno[3,2-c]pyridine are described. These compounds exhibit high affinity for the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor, with high selectivity versus the alpha(1)-receptor. Compound 1 also shows potent in vivo central activity and has been selected for further biological and clinical evaluation. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
Novel 3-(1-piperidinylalkyl)-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives, wherein the piperidine ring is substituted with an aroyl radical or a functional derivative thereof, said compounds being potent serotonin-antagonists.
3-[2-(4-PHENYL-1-PIPERAZINYL)ETHYL]-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one derivatives have central nervous depressant and hypotensive activities and are useful as major tranquillizers. The compounds can be prepared by (a) reacting 2-methyl-3-halogeno (or arylsulfonyloxy or alkylsulfonyloxy)ethyl-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one derivative with 1-phenylpiperazine derivative or (b) reacting an aminopyridine with 2-[2-(4-phenyl-1-piperazinyl)ethyl]-acetoacetic acid ester.
