The 5-HT7 receptor has recently gained much attention due to its involvement in multiple physiological functions and diseases. The insufficient quality of the available molecular probes prompted design of fluorinated 3-(1-alkyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-1H-indoles as a new generation of selective 5-HT7 receptor agonists. A potent and drug-like agonist, 3-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-5-iodo-4-fluoro-1H-indole (AGH-192, 35, Ki 5-HT7R = 4 nM), was identified by optimizing the halogen bond formation with Ser5.42 as the supposed partner. The compound was characterized by excellent water solubility, high selectivity over related CNS targets, high metabolic stability, oral bioavailability and low cytotoxicity. Rapid absorption into the blood, medium half-life and a high peak concentration in the brain Cmax = 1069 ng/g were found after i.p. (2.5 mg/kg) administration in mice. AGH-192 may thus serve as the long-sought tool compound in the study of 5-HT7 receptor function, as well as a potential analgesic, indicated by the antinociceptive effect observed in a mouse model of neuropathic pain.

The invention relates to a new class of substituted indole derivatives that are able to activate 5-HT7 serotonin receptor. These compounds bind 5-HT7 serotonin receptor with high affinity and selectivity, while possessing favourable physicochemical properties. The compounds of the invention are the first described low-basicity 5-HT7 receptor agonists. The invention also relates to use of such compounds in the treatment or prevention of 5-HT7 receptor-related disorders, especially of the central nervous system. The invention also relates to the isotopically labelled compounds for use in the in vivo diagnostics or imaging of a 5-HT7 serotonin receptor.

Several 18F-labeled aromatic amino acids have been developed primarily for tumor imaging with positron-emission-tomography (PET). Also, 18F-labeled tryptophan derivatives were synthesized by electrophilic 18F-fluorination or by introducing a [18F]fluoroalkyl group. Here, a 3-step method for a nucleophilic radiosynthesis of 4-[18F]fluoro-l-tryptophan was developed. A carbonyl activated precursor containing a chiral amino acid building block was radiofluorinated by isotopic exchange, followed by removal of the activating formyl group by reductive decarbonylation and subsequent cleavage of the building block under acidic conditions. The title compound was obtained within 100 min with a radiochemical yield of about 13%, a molar activity of >70 MBq/mmol and an enantiomeric excess of >99%.
