ABSTRACT: A series of 12-(2-phenylethyl)phenoxy]ethylpyrrolidine derivatives were synthesized, and their affinity for serotonin-2 (5-HT2) and dopamine-2 (D2) receptors was examined. Among them, compound 17, (2R,4R)-4-hydroxy-2-[2-[2-[2-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]phenoxylethyl] -1-methylpyrrolidine hydrochloride, showed high 5-HT2 receptor affinity in vitro. This compound was a more potent inhibitor of ex vivo 5-HT-induced platelet aggregation than compound 3, which was previously shown to be more potent than ketanserin (1) and sarpogrelate (2a). However, compound 17 produced gastric irritation in rats. Therefore, we carried out a further derivatization of 17, and compound 45 (R-102444), a lauryl ester prodrug of compound 17, was found to be a promising candidate as an antithrombotic agent. Oral administration of R-102444 produced a marked inhibition of 5-HT-induced ex vivo platelet aggregation, and R-102444 did not cause any gastric irritation. The antiaggregatory effects of R-102444 were more potent than those of sarpogrelate (2a) and its active metabolite, M-1 (2b). In addition, R-102444 exhibited more potent antithrombotic effects than sarpogrelate in a rat photochemically-induced thrombosis model.

ABSTRACT: A series of [2-(omega-phenylalkyl)phenoxy]alkylamines was synthesized and their receptor binding affinity was examined in vitro. These compounds showed an affinity for serotonin-2 (5-HT2) and dopamine-2 (D2) receptors. [2-(2-phenylethyl)phenoxy]alkylamine derivatives with a pyrrolidine or piperidine moiety in the structure showed higher affinity for 5-HT2 receptors but lower affinity for D2 receptors. Among these compounds, (S)-2-[2- [2-[2-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]phenoxy]ethyl]-1-methylpyrrolidine, (S)-27, exhibited the most potent and selective affinity for 5-HT2 receptors. Furthermore, (S)-27 was effective in inhibiting 5-HT-induced vasoconstriction in vitro and platelet aggregation both in vitro and ex vivo.

ABSTRACT: A series of [2-(omega-phenylalkyl)phenoxy]alkylamines was synthesized and their 5-hydroxytryptamine2 (5-HT2) and/or dopamine2 (D2) receptor antagonistic activities were examined in vitro. [2-(4-Phenylbutyl)phenoxy]alkylamines showed strong inhibition of both 5-HT2 and D2 receptors. In particular, [2-(4-Phenylbutyl)phenoxy]-methylpiperidine derivatives, 10b, 10i and 10q, exhibited potent inhibition. The structure-activity relationships in this series of compounds are discussed.
