Discovery of a potent and selective 5-ht5A receptor antagonist by high-throughput chemistry

Abstract

High-throughput screening of an array of biphenylmethylamines synthesised by high-throughput solid-phase chemistry resulted in the identification of compounds with high-affinity for the 5-ht5A receptor. The structure-activity relationship within this series and further array synthesis led to the identification of the biphenylmethylamine derivative 11, a potent and selective 5-ht5A receptor antagonist.
