1-(1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl)-4-azatricyclo[2.2.1.0(2,6)]heptanes as new potent muscarinic M-1 agonists: Structure-activity relationship for 3-aryl-2-propyn-1-yloxy and 3-aryl-2-propyn-1-ylthio derivatives
L. Jeppesen et al., 1-(1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl)-4-azatricyclo[2.2.1.0(2,6)]heptanes as new potent muscarinic M-1 agonists: Structure-activity relationship for 3-aryl-2-propyn-1-yloxy and 3-aryl-2-propyn-1-ylthio derivatives, J MED CHEM, 42(11), 1999, pp. 1999-2006
Two new series of 1-(1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl)-4-azatricyclo[2.2.1.0(2,6)]hept
anes were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro activity in cell lin
es transfected with either the human M-1 or M-2 receptor. 3-Phenyl-2-propyn
-1-yloxy and -1-ylthio analogues substituted with halogen in the meta posit
ion showed high functional potency, efficacy, and selectivity toward the M-
1 receptor subtype. A quite unique functional M-1 receptor selectivity was
observed for compounds 8b, 8d, 8f, 9b, 9d, and 9f. Bioavailability studies
in rats indicated an oral bioavailability of about 20-30%, with the N-oxide
as the only detected metabolite.
