Popis: | Three different series of 1H-pyrrolopyrimidine-2,4-dione derivatives were designed and synthesized as ligands for the α(1)-adrenergic receptors (α(1)-ARs). A microwave-assisted protocol was developed in order to improve purity and yields of some final products. The majority of the synthesized compounds, tested in binding assays, displayed α(1)-AR affinities in the nanomolar range. Highest affinity values were found in derivatives 10b and 10c (K(i)=1.4 nM for both) whereas compound 10e was endowed with the best profile in term of α(1)-AR affinity (K(i)=2.71 nM) coupled with high selectivity towards 5-HT(1A) receptors (K(i) >10,000). Molecular docking studies were performed on human α(1)-ARs and human 5-HT(1A) receptors in order to rationalize the observed experimental affinity and selectivity; these computational studies helped to clarify molecular requirements for the design of high-selective α(1)-adrenergic ligands. |
