P. Conti et al., SYNTHESIS AND BINDING-AFFINITY OF NEW MUSCARINIC LIGANDS STRUCTURALLYRELATED TO OXOTREMORINE, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 7(8), 1997, pp. 1033-1036
The synthesis and radioligand binding assays of a group of muscarinic
ligands related to oxotremorine are reported. The new compounds displa
yed binding affinities comparable to those of the parent molecule with
the exception of the trimethylammonium salt 6, which behaved as a fil
l muscarinic agonist and showed a pronounced selectivity for M-2 versu
s M-1 muscarinic receptor subtypes. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
