Popis: A series of pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridines has been synthesized and evaluated as potential anxiolytic agents. Selected compounds from this series show a pharmacological profile of action different from that of diazepam. A number of the compounds possess higher affinity for central benzodiazepine receptors than diazepam, yet show less anticonvulsant activity and are less sedative. The structure-activity relationships of these potential anxiolytic agents are discussed.
