Abstract
A series of heterocyclic 2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)tryptamine derivatives was p repared and evaluated on a rat gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor assa y. The carbon tether length and heterocyclic ring attached to the amino gro up of 2-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)tryptamine were varied. Several of these deriva tives were potent GnRH antagonists with the most potent compound having an IC50 of 16nM. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
