A test series of 32 phenylpiporazines III with affinity for 5-HT(1A) and α1 receptors was subjected to QSAR analysis using artificial neural networks (ANNs), in order to get insight into the structural requirements that are responsible for 5-HT(1A)/α1 selectivity. Good models and predictive power were obtained for 5-HT(1A) and α1 receptors. A comparison of these models gives information for the design of the new ligand EF-7412 (5-HT(1A):K(i) (nM)= 27; α1 (nM) > 1000). This derivative displayed affinity for dopamine D2 receptor (K(i)= 22 nM) and is selective for all other receptor examined (5-HT(2A), 5-HT3, 5-HT4 and Bz). EF-7412 acts an antagonist in vivo in pre-and postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptor sites and as an antagonist in dopamine D2 receptor.

A series of 48 bicyclohydantoin-phenylpiperazines (1-4) with affinity for 5-HT(1A) and α1 receptors was subjected to three-dimensional quantitative structure-affinity relationship analysis using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA), in order to get insight into the structural requirements that are responsible for 5-HT(1A)/α1 selectivity. Good models (high cross-validation correlations and predictive power) were obtained for 5-HT(1A) and α1 receptors. The resulting 3D-QSAR models rationalize steric and electrostatic factors which modulate binding to 5-HT(1A) and α1 receptors. A comparison of these models gives an additional understanding for 5-HT(1A)/α1 selectivity: (a) Substitution at the ortho position by a group with negative potential is favorable to affinity for both receptors. (b) The meta position seems to be implicated in 5-HT(1A)/α1 selectivity. While the 5-HT(1A) receptor is able to accommodate bulky substituents in the region of its active site, the steric requirements of the α1 receptor are more restricted (optimum volume of substituent 11-25 A?3). (c) For both receptors the para position represents a region where the volume accessible by the ligands is limited. (d) The hydantoin moiety and the side chain length seem to modulate not only the affinity but also 5-HT(1A)/α1 selectivity. The 3D- QSAR models reveal an useful predictive information for the design of new selective ligands.
