N1-(Benzenesulfonyl)tryptamines as novel 5-HT6 antagonists.

N-Benzenesulfonyl-5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (BS/5-OMe DMT; 5) was shown to bind at human 5-HT6 serotonin receptors with high affinity (Ki = 2.3 nM) relative to serotonin (Ki = 78 nM). Structural variation failed to result in significantly enhanced affinity. BS/5-OMe DMT acts as an antagonist of 5-HT-stimulated adenylate cyclase (pA2 = 8.88 nM) and may represent the first member of a novel class of 5-HT6 antagonists.

Benzofuran bioisosteres of hallucinogenic tryptamines.

The benzofuran analogues of the hallucinogens 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine and 5-methoxy-alpha-methyltryptamine were synthesized and evaluated for affinity at the serotonin 5-HT2 and 5-HT1A receptors in rat brain homogenate, labeled with [125I]-1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane ([125I]DOI) and [3H]-8-hydroxy-2-(N,N-di-n-propylamino)tetralin ([3H]-8-OH-DPAT), respectively. At the 5-HT2 receptor, the benzofurans had slightly decreased affinities, approximately one-third and one-sixth those of the indoles, for the primary amines and the tertiary amines, respectively. The benzofurans also had lower affinity at the 5-HT1A receptor, but decreased only about 20-30% from that of the indole isosteres. Thus, the 5-HT1A receptor is less discriminating with respect to preference for an indole versus a benzofuran, although all of the compounds did have higher affinities for the 5-HT2 receptor than for the 5-HT1A receptor. It is suggested that benzofurans may be useful in the design of serotonin receptor ligands.
