A series of 2-phenylpyrrole Mannich bases was synthesized and screened in pharmacological models for antipsychotic activity and extrapyramidal effects.Structure modifications of 5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-methyl>pyrrole (1), the prototype of a new class of sodium-independent atypical dopamine D-2 antagonists, resulted in 2-methyl>-5-(4-fluorophenyl)pyrrole (15), which was an even more potent and selective D-2 antagonist than the parent compound.The excellent oral activity in the apomorphine-induced climbing behavior and the conditioned avoidance response tests and the absence of catalepsy make this compound particularly promising as a potential antipsychotic with a low propensity to induce acute extrapyramidal side effects.
