Abstract

To further improve the maximal serotonergic efficacy and better understand the configurational requirements for 5-HT binding and activation, we generated and biologically investigated structural variants of the lead structure befiradol. For a bioisosteric replacement of the 3-chloro-4-fluoro moiety, a focused library of 63 compounds by solution phase parallel synthesis was developed. Target binding of our compound collection was investigated, and their affinities for 5-HT, α, and α-adrenergic as well as D-D dopamine receptors were compared. For particularly interesting test compounds, intrinsic activities at 5-HT were examined in vitro employing a GTPγS assay. The investigation guided us to highly selective 5HT superagonists. The benzothiophene-3-carboxamide 8bt revealed almost exclusive 5HT recognition with a K value of 2.7 nM and a maximal efficacy of 124%. To get insights into the bioactive conformation of our compound collection, we synthesized conformationally constrained bicyclic scaffolds when SAR data indicated a chair-type geometry and an equatorially dispositioned aminomethyl substituent for the 4,4-disubstituted piperidine moiety. © 2010 American Chemical Society.
