摘要
1,2,3,4-Tetrahydropyrazino[1,2-a]indoles are described as a novel class of I-2 imidazoline receptor ligands. In particular, 8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazino[1,2-a]indole (8-OMe THPI; 3c) binds with high affinity at I-2 imidazoline receptors (K-i = 6.2 nM) and with exceptional (greater than or equal to 1000-fold) selectivity relative to its affinity for I-1 imidazoline receptors, alpha(2)adrenergic receptors, and 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C serotonin receptors.
