Several 5-HT(ID/1B) receptor agonists are now entering the marketplace as treatments for migraine. This paper describes the development of selective h5-HT(1D)receptor agonists as potential antimigraine agents which may produce fewer side effects. A series of 3-[3-(piperidin-1-yl)propyl]indoles has been synthesized which has led to the identification of 80 (L-772,405), a high- affinity h5-HT(1D) receptor full agonist having 170-fold selectivity for h5- HT(1D) receptors over h5-HT(1B) receptors. L-772,405 also shows very good selectivity over a range of other serotonin and nonserotonin receptors and has excellent bioavailability following subcutaneous administration in rats. It therefore constitutes a valuable tool to delineate the role of h5-HT(1D) receptors in migraine. Molecular modeling and physical properties have been utilized to postulate the binding conformation of these compounds in the receptor cavity.
Azetidine, pyrrolidine and piperidine derivatives

A class of substituted azetidine, pyrrolidine and piperidine derivatives are selective agonists of 5-HT1 -like receptors, being potent agonists of the human 5-HT1Dα receptor subtype whilst possessing at least a 10-fold selective affinity for the 5-HT1Dα receptor subtype relative to the 5-HT1Dβ subtype; they are therefore useful in the treatment and/or prevention of clinical conditions, in particular migraine and associated disorders, for which a subtype-selective agonist of 5-HT1D receptors is indicated, whilst eliciting fewer side-effects, notably adverse cardiovascular events, than those associated with non-subtype-selective 5-HT1D receptor agonists.
