Popis: A series of 7-azaindolic ligands bearing a methoxy group and a N -acetyl chain as melatoninergic pharmacophores were synthesized and their binding affinities towards MT 1 and MT 2 receptors were evaluated. Compounds 7a – c and 12 (cyclohexyl ring connected at C-2 and C-3 position) appears as important melatonin MT 2 and MT 1 receptors agonists. On the other hand, the presence of basic groups (amines) at position C-3 was detrimental to the melatoninergic affinities.
