Abstract
Three novel tetraamines (1-3) related to methoctramine were designed, and their biological profiles at muscarinic receptor subtypes were ass essed by binding assays. It turned out that the constrained analogue s pirotramine (3, FC 15-94) of 4-DAMP has an affinity profile better tha n that of pirenzepine owing to a high affinity for muscarinic M(1) rec eptors and a significantly lower affinity for the M(2), M(3) and M(4) subtypes.
