A structurally original series of N-(1-ethyl-4-methylhexahydro-1,4-diazepin-6-yl)pyridine-3-carboxamides derived from the corresponding benzamide 5 were prepared and evaluated for their binding affinity for the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors using rat striatum and rat cortical membrane, respectively. Many of the synthesized pyridine-3-carboxamides exhibited nanomolar binding affinity for the serotonin 5-HT3 receptor along with moderate to high binding affinity for the dopamine D2 receptor. Introduction of the more lipophilic bromine atom and methylamino group at the 5- and 6-positions of the pyridine ring, respectively, enhanced the affinity for the dopamine D2 receptor while keeping a potent serotonin 5-HT3 receptor binding affinity. As a result of structure-affinity relationships, the 5-bromo-2-methoxy-6-methylaminopyridine-3-carboxamide 53 was selected as the most promising product showing a high binding affinity for both receptors. Compound 53 affinity for the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors was much more potent than that of metoclopramide (dopamine D2 receptor; 23.3 nM vs 444 nM, serotonin 5-HT3 receptor; 0.97 nM vs 228 nM). Optical resolution of the racemate 53 brought about a dramatic change in the pharmacological profile with (R)- 53 exhibiting a strong affinity for both the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors, while the corresponding (S)-53 had a potent serotonin 5-HT3 receptor binding affinity and a moderate dopamine D2 receptor binding affinity. X-ray crystallographic study of (R)-53 revealed the existence of two energically stable conformers just like two mirror images. This may account for (R)-53 high affinity for both the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors. Pharmacologically, (R)-53 [AS-8112] showed a potent antagonistic activity for both the dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT3 receptors in vivo tests and dose-dependently inhibited both the incidence and frequency of emetic episodes induced by cisplatin (ferrets) and morphine (dogs) with ID50 values of 27.1, μg/kg, po and 136 μg/kg, po, respectively. On the basis of this pharmacological profile, (R)-53 is now under further investigation as a potential broad antiemetic agent.

A series of N-(1-ethyl-4-methylhexahydro-1,4-diazepin-6-yl)nicotinamide derivatives were prepared and evaluated for their binding to 5-HT3 and dopamine D2 receptors. Among them, the 5-bromo-2-methoxy-6- methylaminonicotinamide 16 and its (R)-isomer were found to have potent affinities for both receptors. The affinities of (R)-16 for 5-HT3 and dopamine D2 receptors are approximately 3-fold higher than those of the corresponding benzamide (R)-1 (IC50: 1.1 and 12 nM vs. 2.9 and 35 nM, respectively).
