Several beta- and gamma-amino acid derivatives were prepared as glycine transport inhibitors and their ability to block the uptake of [C-14]-glycine in COS7 cells transfected with human glycine transporter-2 (hGlyT-2) were evaluated. A range of lipophilic side chains were tolerated in the beta-amino acid series (i.e., Ph, CH2Ph, CH(CH3)(2), and CH2CH(CH3)(2)). In the gamma-amino acid series, minimal differences in potency were observed between the alpha, beta-unsaturated analogs and the corresponding saturated derivatives. In both series, a 4-biphenyl or 4-phenoxyphenyl substituent appended to the urea or cyanogunaidine moiety was necessary for in vitro activity. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
