Abstract
N-Acetyl-1-aryl-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives were designed and synthesized as potential noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonists on the basis of molecular modeling studies. Sound-induced seizure testing showed that this class of compounds possessed anticonvulsant properties. In particular, 10c was more potent than talampanel (2), a noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonist currently being investigated in phase III trials as an antiepileptic agent. Furthermore, electrophysiological studies indicated that 10c was a highly effective noncompetitive-type modulator of the AMPA receptor.
