Novel and Selective Partial Agonists of 5-HT3 Receptors. 2. Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Piperazinopyridopyrrolopyrazines, Piperazinopyrroloquinoxalines, and Piperazinopyridopyrroloquinoxalines
摘要:
In continuation of our previous work on piperazinopyrrolothienopyrazine derivatives, three series of piperazinopyridopyrrolopyrazines, piperazinopyrroloquinoxalines, and piperazinopyridopyrrolaquinoxalines were prepared and evaluated as 5-HT3 receptor ligands. The chemical modifications performed within these new series led to structure-activity relationships regarding both high affinity and selectivity for the 5-HT3 receptors that are in agreement with those established previously for the pyrrolothienopyrazine series. The best compound (8a) obtained in these new series is in the picomolar range of affinity for 5-HT3 receptors with a selectivity higher than 10(6). Four of the high-affinity 5-HT3 ligands (8a, 15a,b, and 16d) were selected in both the pyridopyrrolopyrazine and the pyrroloquinoxaline series and were characterized in vitro and in vivo as agonists or partial agonists. Compound 8a was also evaluated in the light/dark test where it showed potential anxiolytic-like activity at very low doses per os.

Pyrroloquinoxaline Derivatives as High-Affinity and Selective 5-HT<sub>3</sub> Receptor Agonists: Synthesis, Further Structure−Activity Relationships, and Biological Studies
[(3)H]zacopride binding. The SAR studies detailed herein delineated a number of structural features required for improving affinity. Some of the ligands were employed as "molecular yardsticks" to probe the spatial dimensions of the lipophilic pockets L1, L2, and L3 in the 5-HT(3) receptor cleft, while the 7-OH pyrroloquinoxaline analogue was designed to investigate hydrogen bonding with a putative receptor site
