A Novel Class of Adenosine A3 Receptor Ligands. 1. 3-(2-Pyridinyl)isoquinoline Derivatives
摘要:
A series of 3-(2-pyridinyl)isoquinoline derivatives was synthesized as potential antagonists for the human adenosine A(3) receptor by substitution of the 1-position. The compounds were obtained by various synthetic routes from 1-amino-3-(2-pyridinyl)isoquinoline. The affinity was determined in radioligand binding assays for rat brain A(1) and A(2A) receptors and for the cloned human A(3) receptor. A structure-activity relationship analysis indicated that a phenyl group when coupled by a spacer allowing conjugation on position 1 of the isoquinoline ring increased the adenosine A(3) receptor affinity. In contrast, such a phenyl group directly bound to position 1 of the isoquinoline ring decreased affinity. Since the combination of a phenyl group together with a spacer raised adenosine A(3) receptor affinity, various spacers were investigated. VUF8501 (N-[3-(2-pyridinyl)isoquinolin-1-yl]benzamidine (15) showed an affinity at the human adenosine A(3) receptor of 740 nM. Substituent effects on the phenyl group were investigated by in vitro evaluation of a series of substituted benzamidines. Electron-donating groups at the para position of the benzamidine ring increased adenosine A(3) receptor affinity. These investigations led to VUF8505 (4-methoxy-N-[3-(2-pyridinyl)isoquinolin-1-yl]benzamidine (22)), which is a moderately potent and selective ligand for the human adenosine A(3) receptor with an affinity of 310 nM in our test system having negligible affinity for rat A(1) and A(2A) receptors.
