Disclosed herein are a series of modafinil analogue compounds that bind with moderate to high affinity to the dopamine (DA) transporter (DAT) and several analogues also having affinity for the serotonin (5-HT) transporter (SERT) and/or sigma-1 receptor. Employing aminopiperidine, piperidineamino, spirobicyclodiaza, or substituted piperazine functional groups, desired dopamine transporter affinity has been retained along with improved metabolic stability over unsubstituted piperazine ring analogues. Importantly, these compounds have no predicted addictive liability. Also disclosed are methods for treating substance use disorders as well as other neuropsychiatric disorders such as ADHD, depression, narcolepsy, and cognitive impairment.
本发明公开了一系列
莫达非尼类似物化合物,这些化合物以中等至高亲和力结合
多巴胺(
DA)转运体(
DAT),并且其中几种类似物还对
血清素(5-HT)转运体(
SERT)和/或σ-1受体具有亲和力。通过使用
氨基
哌啶、
哌啶氨基、螺二氮杂环或取代的
哌嗪功能团,不仅保留了对
多巴胺转运体的亲和力,而且相对于未取代的
哌嗪环类似物,其代谢稳定性得到了改善。重要的是,这些化合物没有预测到的成瘾性。此外,还公开了治疗物质使用障碍以及其他神经精神障碍如注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)、抑郁症、嗜睡症和认知损害的方法。
