Discovery of a series of 2-phenyl- N -(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)phenyl)acetamides as novel molecular switches that modulate modes of Kv7.2 (KCNQ2) channel pharmacology: Identification of (S)-2-phenyl- N -(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl) phenyl)butanamide (ML252) as a potent, brain penetrant Kv7.2 channel inhibitor

A potent and selective inhibitor of KCNQ2, (S)-5 (ML252, IC50 = 69 nM), was discovered after a high-throughput screen of the MLPCN library was performed. SAR studies revealed a small structural change (ethyl group to hydrogen) caused a functional shift from antagonist to agonist activity (37, EC50 = 170 nM), suggesting an interaction at a critical site for controlling gating of KCNQ2 channels.
