Abstract
A comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) investigation was condu cted on the binding of 64 compounds to sigma(1) receptors. Although Co MFA accurately predicted the binding affinities of the 64 compounds in the final set (R-2 = 0.989), it was unable to predict the high affini ty of the previously reported bridged sigma ligand SC-50691. SC-50691, and its endo and exo isomers were synthesized and found to bind with much lower affinity than was previously reported. (C) Elsevier, Paris.
