Exploration of the amine terminus in a novel series of 1,2,4-triazolo-3-yl-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes as selective dopamine D3 receptor antagonists

Abstract

A novel series of 1,2,4-triazol-3-yl-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes with high affinity and selectivity for the DA D(3) receptor and excellent pharmacokinetic profiles was recently reported. We also recently discussed the role of the linker associated with the triazole moiety. In this manuscript, we are reporting a detailed exploration of the region of the receptor interacting with the amine terminus of the scaffold wherein SAR and developability data associated with these novel templates was undertaken.
