Synthesis of new hexahydro- and octahydropyrido(1,2-c)pyrimidine derivatives with an arylpiperazine moiety as ligands for 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Part 4.

摘要

New 4-aryl-2H-pyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine-1,3-dione derivatives of arylpiperazine (6-18) were prepared and evaluated in vitro for their affinity for 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, and alpha1 receptors. The influence of ortho substitution in the phenyl ring, substitution at position 4 of the pyrido[1,2-c]pyrimidine system, and its unsaturation degree were explored. The tested compounds showed high affinity for the 5-HT1A receptor (Ki = 1.3-79.2 nM) and moderate to low affinity for the 5-HT2A (Ki = 51.7-1405 nM) and alpha1 receptors (Ki = 19.7-382.3 nM). Compounds 8 and 10 showed the highest 5-HT1A receptor affinity (Ki = 1.3 and 2.2 nM, respectively) and were 37- and 35.9-fold, respectively, more selective in relation to alpha1 adrenoreceptors.
