Novel N-{ -[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]- Ethyl}pyrid-2(1h)-ones with Diversified 5-ht1a Receptor Activity

Novel N-[omega-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]-ethyl]pyrid-2(1H)-ones with diversified 5-HT1A receptor activity.

Novel omega-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethyl derivatives 1-6 containing 4-, 5- and/or 6-arylsubstituted pyrid-2(1H)-one moiety were synthesized. All the new compounds were examined in vitro to assess their 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptor affinities. Compounds 3 and 4 with a 5- or a 6-phenylsubstituted pyridone ring demonstrated high 5-HT1A receptor affinity (Ki = 17 and 38 nM, respectively) ...

Substitution mode of the amide fragment in some new N-[omega-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]alkyl]pyrid-2(1H)-ones and their 5-HT1A/5-HT2A activity.

A series of omega-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]alkyl derivatives with terminal pyrid-2(1H)-one fragments was synthesized and evaluated for their 5-HTIA and 5-HT2A activity. Enlargement of the aromatic amide system by its substitution with phenyl and/or p-methoxyphenyl in positions 4, 5 and/or 6, as well as modification of an aliphatic spacer allowed us to better understand structure-activ...

Design, Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of Bridgehead Fluoromethyl Analogues of N-{2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethyl}-N- (pyridin-2-yl)cyclohexanecarboxamide (WAY-100635) for the 5-HT1A Receptor

Extended N-Arylsulfonylindoles as 5-HT₆ Receptor Antagonists: Design, Synthesis & Biological Evaluation.

Based on a known pharmacophore model for 5-HT₆ receptor antagonists, a series of novel extended derivatives of the N-arylsulfonyindole scaffold were designed and identified as a new class of 5-HT₆ receptor modulators. Eight of the compounds exhibited moderate to high binding affinities and displayed antagonist profile in 5-HT₆ receptor functional assays. Compounds 2-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)piperazi...

Differential effects of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A receptor inverse agonists Rec 27/0224 and Rec 27/0074 on electrophysiological responses to 5-HT1A receptor activation in rat dorsal raphe nucleus and hippocampus in vitro.

The pharmacological properties of cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, {2-[4-(2-bromo-5-methoxybenzyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethyl}-(2-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)amide (Rec 27/0224), and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, (2-methoxy-phenyl)-{2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-piperazin-1-yl]ethyl}amide (Rec 27/0074), were characterized using radioligand displacement and guanosine 5'-O-(3-[35S]thiotriphosphate) ([35S]GTPgammaS) bindin...
