Synthesis and SAR of adatanserin : Novel adamantyl aryl- and heteroarylpiperazines with dual serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 activity as potential anxiolytic and antidepressant agents
1999
Several novel functionalized adamantyl aryl- and heteroarylpiperazine derivatives were prepared and examined in various receptor binding and behavioral tests to determine their serotonin receptor activities. Many compounds demonstrated modest to high affinity for 5-HT1A receptors, with compounds 9, 13, 23, 33, 34, and 43 being the most potent at this site. Compound 1, 2-[4-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl adamantyl-1-carboxylate, demonstrated relatively high affinity for 5-HT1A receptors (Ki = 8 nM) and acceptable selectivity versus D2 receptors (Ki = 708 mM); however, it lacked in vivo activity in serotonergic behavioral models. In contrast, compounds 9 (WY-50,324, SEB-324, adatanserin), adamantyl-1-carboxylic acid 2-[4-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethylamide, and 13, adamantyl-1-carboxylic acid 2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethylamide, demonstrated high affinity for 5-HT1A binding sites (Ki = 1 nM for both) and moderate affinity for 5-HT2 receptors (Ki = 73 and 75 nM, respectively). Both comp...
