- Structure-Activity Study of N -((trans)-4-(2-(7-Cyano-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1 H)-yl)ethyl)cyclohexyl)-1 H -indole-2-carboxamide (SB269652), a Bitopic Ligand That Acts as a Negative Allosteric Modulator of the Dopamine D2 Receptor
-
We recently demonstrated that SB269652 (1) engages one protomer of a dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) dimer in a bitopic mode to allosterically inhibit the binding of dopamine at the other protomer. Herein, we investigate structural determinants for allostery, focusing on modifications to three moieties within 1. We find that orthosteric "head" groups with small 7-substituents were important to maintain the limited negative cooperativity of analogues of 1, and replacement of the tetrahydroisoquinoline head group with other D2R "privileged structures" generated orthosteric antagonists. Additionally, replacement of the cyclohexylene linker with polymethylene chains conferred linker length dependency in allosteric pharmacology. We validated the importance of the indolic NH as a hydrogen bond donor moiety for maintaining allostery. Replacement of the indole ring with azaindole conferred a 30-fold increase in affinity while maintaining negative cooperativity. Combined, these results provide novel SAR insight for bitopic ligands that act as negative allosteric modulators of the D2R.

- A structure-activity analysis of biased agonism at the dopamine D2 receptor
-
Biased agonism offers an opportunity for the medicinal chemist to discover pathway-selective ligands for GPCRs. A number of studies have suggested that biased agonism at the dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) may be advantageous for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. As such, it is of great importance to gain insight into the SAR of biased agonism at this receptor. We have generated SAR based on a novel D2R partial agonist, tert-butyl (trans-4-(2-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin- 2(1H)-yl)ethyl)cyclohexyl)carbamate (4). This ligand shares structural similarity to cariprazine (2), a drug awaiting FDA approval for the treatment of schizophrenia, yet displays a distinct bias toward two different signaling end points. We synthesized a number of derivatives of 4 with subtle structural modifications, including incorporation of cariprazine fragments. By combining pharmacological profiling with analytical methodology to identify and to quantify bias, we have demonstrated that efficacy and biased agonism can be finely tuned by minor structural modifications to the head group containing the tertiary amine, a tail group that extends away from this moiety, and the orientation and length of a spacer region between these two moieties.

- BENZOYL-PIPERIDINE DERIVATIVES AS DUAL MODULATORS OF THE 5-HT2A AND D3 RECEPTORS
-
The present invention relates to compounds of formula (I) wherein R1 and A are as defined in the specification as dual modulators of the serotonin 5-HT2a and dopamine D3 receptors, their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as medicaments. Compounds of general formula (I) have high affinity for the dopamine D3 and serotonin (5-Hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) 5-HT2A receptors and are effective in the treatment of psychotic disorders, as well as other diseases such as depression and anxiety, drug dependence, dementias and memory impairment.

- Synthesis of analogues of N (2 chloroethyl) N' trans 4 methylcyclohexyl) N nitrosourea for evaluation as anticancer agents
-
The superior activity of N (2 chloroethyl) N' (trans 4 methylcyclohexyl) N nitrosourea (MeCCNU) against advanced murine Lewis lung carcinoma in comparisons with the cis form and other nitrosoureas prompted the synthesis of a number of MeCCNU analogues, including several cis trans pairs. The methyl group was replaced by a variety of substituents (CO2H, CH2CO2H, CO2Me, CH2OAc, CH2Cl, OMe); the trans 3 methylcyclohexyl, cis 2 methyl 1,3 dithian 5 yl, cis and trans 2 methyl 1,3 dithian 5 yl tetraoxide, and 1 methylhexyl (open chain) analogues were also prepared. Preliminary tests against murine leukemia L1210 revealed therapeutic indices (ED50/LD10) ranging from 0.26 to 0.79; all but 3 analogues effected 50% cure rates at nontoxic doses, the open chain analogue being one of the least active. In terms of therapeutic index, diequatorial (trans 4) isomers were, with one exception, as active as or, in 4 of the 8 examples, somewhat more active than the corresponding axial equatorial (cis 4) isomers. In this series, 4 of the 5 2-fluoroethyl analogues prepared were clearly inferior to the corresponding 2 chloroethyl analogues.
