Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence techniques were employed to study the excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) to water and D2O of a new photoacid, phenol benzoate cyanine picolinium salt (BCyP). We found that the ground-state pKa is about 6.5, whereas the excited-state pKa? is about -4.5. The ESPT rate constant, kPT, to water is ～0.5 × 1012s-1 (τPT ≈ 2 ps) and in D2O the rate is 0.33 × 1012 s-1. We determined that the BCyP photoacid belongs to the third regime of photoacids, the solvent-controlled regime.

NMDA receptors are tetrameric complexes composed of GluN1 and GluN2A-D subunits that mediate a slow Ca2+-permeable component of excitatory synaptic transmission. NMDA receptors have been implicated in a wide range of neurological diseases and thus represent an important therapeutic target. We herein describe a novel series of pyrrolidinones that selectively potentiate only NMDA receptors that contain the GluN2C subunit. The most active analogues tested were over 100-fold selective for recombinant GluN2C-containing receptors over GluN2A/B/D-containing NMDA receptors as well as AMPA and kainate receptors. This series represents the first class of allosteric potentiators that are selective for diheteromeric GluN2C-containing NMDA receptors.
