A series of novel N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonists acting at the phencyclidine site has been identified. Compound 2 has a Ki = 8 +/- 1 nM (vs [3H]thienylcyclidine, [3H]TCP) as a mixture of enantiomers. Resolution and further testing indicate that (-)-2, Ki = 4 +/- 0.7 nM, is a potent and selective TCP site ligand with neuroprotective activity in cultured neurons in the presence of excitotoxic concentrations
