A series of new N-substituted 2,3-dihydro-2-aminomethyl-2H-1-benzofuran der
ivatives was prepared and evaluated for affinity at 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C,
5-H-3, D-2, and D-3 receptors. Compound 9, 8-[4-[N-propyl-N-(7-hydroxy-2,3
-dihydro-2h-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methyl]aminobutyl]-8-azaspiro[4,5]decane-7,9-
dione, bound at 5-HT1A sites with nanomolar affinity (IC50 = 1.5 nM) and hi
gh selectivity over 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT3, D-2, and D-3 receptors. (C) 1999
