A. Nuhrich et al., SYNTHESIS AND BINDING AFFINITIES OF A SERIES OF 1,2-BENZISOXAZOLE-3-CARBOXAMIDES TO DOPAMINE AND SEROTONIN RECEPTORS, European journal of medicinal chemistry, 31(12), 1996, pp. 957-964
A series of 1,2-benzisoxazole-3-carboxamides derived from tertiary cyc
loalkylamines was synthesized and evaluated for affinity for serotoner
gic (5-HT3 and 5-HT4) and dopaminergic (D-2) receptors using radioliga
nd binding assays. The majority of compounds displayed a very weak aff
inity for the studied neurotransmitter receptors. Only amides containi
ng a conformationally rigid system retained a relative 5-HT3 receptor
affinity. The presence of a quinuclidine group affected receptor inter
action more favorably than the tropane framework.
