To obtain gastroprokinetic agents with more potent and selective activity than metoclopramide and cisapride, a series of N-(4-benzyl-2-morpholinylmethyl)benzamides were designed and prepared. Their synthesis and structure-activity relationships were described. As a result, mosapride was selected as a promising candidate for potent gastroprokinetic activity with selective 5-HT4 receptor agonistic activity. As an extension to this project, the novel benzamide and the carboxamide derivatives having 1-benzyl-4-methylhexahydro-1,4-diazepine ring in the amine moiety were prepared and evaluated for 5-HT3 receptor antagonistic activity. DAT-582 was identified as an antiemetic agent in cancer chemotherapy. The asymmetric synthesis of DAT-582 and the SAR studies were briefly reviewed. In further modifications of the N-(1-benzyl-4-methylhexahydro-1,4-diazepin-6-yl)benzamides, the novel nicotinamides with 1-ethyl-4-methylhexahydro-1,4-diazepin ring were found to have potent 5-HT3 and dopamine D2 and D3 receptor antagonistic activities and to show weak central nervous system depression and extrapyramidal syndrome. After extensive SARs, AS-8112 was selected as a broad antiemetic agent.

A series of mazindol (1), homomazindol (2), and bishomomazindol (3) derivatives with a benzo or cyclohexano ring fused at various sites were prepared as part of an SAR study to determine the effect of increased aliphatic and aromatic lipophilicity on selected in vitro assays used to identify potential cocaine-like and cocaine antagonism activity. Very good (IC(50) = 2-3 nM) inhibition of [(3)H] WIN 35,428 and [(125)I] RTI-55 binding on rat or guinea pig striatal membranes and HEK cells expressing cDNA for the human dopamine transporter (HEK-hDAT) was shown by the 8,9-benzomazindol 25 and 9,10-benzohomomazindol 28. All new compounds were weaker inhibitors of [(3)H] DA uptake in HEK-hDAT cells than 1 and 2. No improvement in the binding selectivity ratio (SERT/DAT and NET/DAT) was found when compared to 2. Compounds 25and 28 showed a considerable increase versus 1 in uptake/binding discrimination ratios at the DAT (311.0 and 182.1 vs 0.9), SERT (33.6 and 127.3 vs 1.9), and NET (7.3 and 10.0 vs 0.3).

Early studies led to the identification of 3beta-(4-methoxyphenyl)tropane-2beta-carboxylic acid methyl ester (5) with high affinity at the DAT (IC(50)=6.5nM) and 5-HTT (K(i)=4.3nM), while having much less affinity at the NET (K(i)=1110nM). In the present study, we replaced the 4'-methoxy group of the 3beta-phenyl ring with a bioisosteric 4'-methylthio group to give 7a. We also synthesized a number of 3beta-(4-alkylthiophenyl)tropanes 7b-e, 3beta-(4-methylsulfinylphenyl) and 3beta-(4-methylsulfonylphenyl)tropane analogues 7f-h as well as the 3beta-(4-alkylthiophenyl)nortropane derivatives 8-11 to further characterize the structure-activity relationship of this type of compound for binding at monoamine transporters. With exception of the 4'-methylsulfonyl analogue 7h, all the tested compounds possessed high binding affinities at the 5-HTT. The K(i) values ranged from 0.19nM to 49nM. The 3beta-(4-methylthiophenyl)tropane 7a and its N-(3-fluoropropyl) analogue 9a and N-allyl analogue 10a are the most selective compounds for the 5-HTT over the NET (NET/5-HTT=314-364) in the series. However, none of the compounds showed selectivity similar to 5 for both the DAT and 5-HTT relative to the NET. This study provided useful SAR information for rational design of potent and selective monoamine transporter inhibitors.

The discovery of new highly potent and selective triple reuptake inhibitors is reported. The new classes of 1-(aryl)-6-[alkoxyalkyl]-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes and 6-(aryl)-6-[alkoxyalkyl]-3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes are described together with detailed SAR. Appropriate decoration of the scaffolds was achieved with the help of a triple reuptake inhibitor pharmacophore model detailed here. Selected derivatives showed good oral bioavailability (>30%) and brain penetration (B/B > 4) in rats associated with high in vitro potency and selectivity at SERT, NET, and DAT. Among these compounds, microdialysis and in vivo experiments confirm that derivative 15 has an appropriate developability profile to be considered for further progression.

Current therapy of depression is less than ideal with remission rates of only 25-35% and response rates of 45-60%. It has been hypothesized that a dysfunctional dopaminergic system in the mesocorticolimbic pathway in depressive disorder may lead to development of anhedonia associated with loss of pleasure and interest along with loss of motivation. The current antidepressants do not address dopamine dysfunction which might explain their low efficacy. In this report, we have described an SAR study on our pyran-based triple reuptake inhibitors (TRIs) which are being investigated as the next-generation antidepressants. In the present work we demonstrate that our lead TRIs can be modified with appropriate aromatic substitutions to display a highly potent SSRI profile for compounds 2a and 4a (Ki (SERT); 0.71 and 2.68nM, respectively) or a potent DNRI profile for compounds 6b and 6h (Ki (DAT/NET); 8.94/4.76 and 13/7.37nM, respectively). Compounds 4g-4i exhibited potencies at all three monoamine transporters. The results provide insights into the structural requirements for developing selective dual- and triple-uptake inhibitors from a unique pyran molecular template for an effective management of depression and related disorders.
