Conformation-activity relationship study of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists and a definition of a model for this receptor site

J Med Chem. 1990 Jun;33(6):1594-600. doi: 10.1021/jm00168a011.

Abstract

A conformation-activity relationship study of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists was used to define a pharmacophore and receptor map to qualitatively account for their activity. The design and synthesis of specific keto-amino-indole derivatives that are potent 5-HT3 receptor antagonists gave some support to the model.
