Abstract

Recently, a new series of potent and highly subtype-selective 1-(heteroarylalkynyl)-4- benzylpiperidine antagonists of the NMDA receptors has been described by Pfizer Laboratories. In this series, 5-[3-(4-benzylpiperidin-1-yl) prop-1-ynyl]-1, 3- dihydrobenzoimidazol-2-one (1) was identified as a selective antagonist for the NR1A/2B subtype, displaying IC50 values for inhibition of the NMDA responses of 5.3 nM for this ...
