Abstract
A new set of 4-alkyl-1-(o-methoxyphenyl)piperazines containing a termi nal benzotriazole fragment were synthesized, and their 5-HT1A and 5-HT 2 affinity was determined. It was shown that the benzotriazole moiety contributes to both the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 receptor affinity. It was dem onstrated in several behavioral models that triazol-1-yl)propyl]-1-(2- methoxyphenyl)piperazine (11) is a new, potent presynaptic and postsyn aptic 5-HT1A receptor antagonist. However, it is not selective For 5-H T1A versus alpha(1) receptors.
