A novel series of [3.2.1] azabicyclic biaryl ethers as alpha3beta4 and alpha6/4beta4 nicotinic receptor agonists.
Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters(2010)
Abstract
We report the synthesis of a series of [3.2.1]azabicyclic biaryl ethers as selective agonists of alpha3- and alpha6-containing nicotinic receptors. In particular, compound 17a from this series is a potent alpha3beta4 and alpha6/4beta4 receptor agonist in terms of both binding and functional activity. Compound 17a also shows potent in vivo activity in CNS-mediated animal models that are sensitive to antipsychotic drugs. Compound 17a may thus be a useful tool for studying the role of alpha3beta4 and alpha6/4beta4 nicotinic receptors in CNS pharmacology.
