A series of (bisarylmethoxy)butylpiperidine derivatives was prepared and evaluated in vitro and in vivo to determine the structural requirements necessary for dual activity at the DAT and DA/5-HT receptor sites. These hybrid ligands, constructed by combining pharmacophores specific for the DAT and DA/5-HT receptors, could be useful drugs for treating cocaine addiction by assisting cocaine addicts in maintaining abstinence. The series was evaluated in vitro for DAT and DA/5-HT receptor activity and then selected compounds were tested in vivo for their effects on cocaine-induced hyperlocomotor activity (LMA). The majority of the new compounds demonstrated high to moderate affinity (4-191 nM) for the DAT with 4-hydroxy-4-phenylpiperidine analogues 14 and 15 possessing the greatest affinity. Compounds 15 and 22 exhibited the highest ratio of reuptake inhibition-to-binding (discrimination ratio, DR), 111 and 323, respectively. These derivatives had modest affinity and antagonistic activity for dopamine D2/D3 receptors. Compounds 9 and 15 (DR=0.9 and 111, respectively) stimulated locomotor activity, whereas the other compounds suppressed this response. All compounds tested except for 17 and 21 attenuated cocaine-induced hyperlocomotion.

The introduction of lipophilic groups onto the ring nitrogen of nipecotic acid and guvacine, two known GABA uptake inhibitors, afforded potent, orally-active anticonvulsant drugs.A series of compounds is reported which explores the structure-activity relationships (SAR) in this series.Among the areas explored: side-chain SAR (aromatic-, heterocyclic-, and tricyclic-containing side chains) and modifications to the tetrahydropyridine ring.The benzhydrol ether-containing side chains afforded the most potent compounds with several exhibiting in vitro IC50 values for GABA uptake of 1 μM (including 5, Table I; 37, 43, Table IV; and 44, Table V).Compound 44 was selected for extensive evaluation and subsequently progressed to Phase 1 clinical trials with severe adverse effects seen after single dose administration to humans.
