In vitro and in vivo SAR of pyrido[3,4-d]pyramid-4-ylamine based mGluR1 antagonists

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2009 Apr 15;19(8):2190-4. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2009.02.106. Epub 2009 Mar 3.

Abstract

The SAR of a series of novel pyrido[3,4-d]pyramid-4-ylamine mGluR1 antagonists is described. The multiple of the unbound K(i) in cerebrospinal fluid necessary to give morphine like analgesic effects in an electromyograph pinch model in rodents is determined and the effect of structure on CNS penetration examined.
