In a search toward new and efficient antidepressants, 1-aryl-3-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)propanederivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for 5-HT reuptake inhibition and 5-HT1A receptor antagonism. This dual pharmacological profile should lead, in principle, to a rapid and pronounced enhancement in serotoninergic neurotransmission and consequently to a more efficacious treatment of depression
