Previous studies have demonstrated that clobenpropit (N-(4-chlorobenzyl)-S-[3-(4(5)-imidazolyl)propyl]isothiourea) binds to both the human histamine H3 receptor (H3R) and H4 receptor (H4R). In this paper, we describe the synthesis and pharmacological characterization of a series of clobenpropit analogs, which vary in the functional group adjacent to the isothiourea moiety in order to study structural requirements for H3R and H4R ligands. The compounds show moderate to high affinity for both the human H3R and H4R. Furthermore, the changes in the functional group attached to the isothiourea moiety modulate the intrinsic activity of the ligands at the H4R, ranging from neutral antagonism to full agonism. QSAR models have been generated in order to explain the H3R and H4R affinities.

(Chemical Equation Presented) S-Alkyl-N-alkylisothioureas were efficiently synthesized via synthetic approach (A) using 3-phenylpro-pionyl isothiocyanate (PPI). The utility of the approach was proved by the syntheses of clobenpropit, a potent histamine H3 antagonist, and its analogues. Alternatively, clobenpropit could be prepared via intramolecular amide cleavage (B) with use of 2-nitrophenylacetyl isothiocyanate (NPAI).
