Structure−Activity Relationships for a Novel Series of Dopamine D2-like Receptor Ligands Based on N-Substituted 3-Aryl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ol
摘要:
Discovering dopamine D2-like receptor subtype-selective ligands has been a focus of significant investigation. The D2R-selective antagonist 3-[4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidinyl]methylindole (1, L741,626; K-i(D2R/MR) = 11.2:163 nM) has previously provided a lead template for chemical modification. Herein, analogues have been synthesized where the piperidine was replaced by a tropane ring that reversed the selectivity seen in the parent compound, in human hD2(L)R- or hD3R-transfected HEK 293 cells (31, K-i(D2R/D3R) = 33.4: 15.5 nM). Further exploration of both N-substituted and aryl ring-substituted analogues resulted in the discovery of several high affinity D2R/D3R ligands with 3-benzofurylmethyl-substituents (e.g., 45, K-i(D2R/D3R) = 1.7:0.34 nM) that induced high affinity not achieved in similarly N-substituted piperidine analogues and significantly (470-fold) improved D3R binding affinity compared to the parent ligand 1. X-ray crystallographic data revealed a distinctive spatial arrangement of pharmacophoric elements in the piperidinol vs tropine analogues, providing clues for the diversity in SAR at the D2 and D3 receptor subtypes.

A series of 3-arylnortrop-2-enes and 3 alpha-arylmethoxy-3 beta-arylnortropanes were synthesized and evaluated for binding affinity at monoamine transporters. The 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)nortrop-2-ene (6e) exhibited high affinity for the SERT (K-i = 0.3 nM). The 3 alpha-arylmethoxy-3 beta-arylnortropanes were generally SERT selective with the 3 alpha-(3,4-dichlorophenylmethoxy)-3 beta phenylnortrop-2-ene (7c) possessing subnanomolar potency (K-i = 0.061 nM). However, 3 alpha-(3,4-dichlorophenylmethoxy)-3 beta-phenylnortrop-2-ene (7b) exhibited high affinity at all three transporters [(DAT K-i = 22 nM), (SERT K-i = 6 nM) and (NET K-i = 101 nM)].
