The Medicinal Chemistry of 5-HT6 Receptor Ligands with a Focus on Arylsulfonyltryptamine Analogs

[摘要]：Arylsulfonyl analogs of aminopyrimidines (e. g. Ro 04-6790; 2), aminopyridines (e. g. Ro 63-0563; 3), 1-phenylpiperazines (e. g. SB-271046; 4), and tryptamines (e. g. MS-245; 5) were described as the first examples of selective 5-HT6 receptor antagonists only ten years ago. Today, hundreds of compounds of seemingly diverse structure have been reported. The early antagonists featured an arylsulfonyl group leading to the widespread assumption that an arylsulfonyl moiety might be critical for binding and antagonist action. With respect to the arylsulfonyltryptamines, it seems that neither the "arylsulfonyl" nor the "tryptamine" portion of these compounds is essential for binding or for antagonist action, and some such derivatives even display agonist action. The present review describes many of the currently available 5-HT6 receptor ligands and, unlike prior reviews, provides a narrative of the thinking (where possible) that led to their design, synthesis, and evaluation. The arylsulfonyltryptamines are also used as the structural basis of attempts to relate various structure-types to one another to afford a better understanding of the overall structural requirements for 5-HT6 receptor binding.
