Novel and highly potent histamine H3 receptor ligands. Part 2: Exploring the cyclohexylamine-based series

摘要

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel and potent cyclohexylamine-based histamine H3 receptor inverse agonists are described. Compounds in this newly identified series exhibited subnanomolar binding affinities for human receptor and no significant interaction with hERG channel. One derivative (10t) demonstrated enhanced in vivo efficiency and preferential brain distribution, both properties suitable for potential clinical evaluation.
