In humans, 5-HT1D serotonin receptors represent terminal autoreceptors, and there is some evidence that 5-HT1D ligands may be useful in the treatment of migraine. The most widely used 5-HT1D agonist is sumatriptan; however, this agent reportedly displays little selectivity for 5-HT1D versus 5-HT1A receptors. To identify novel serotonergic agents with enhanced 5-HT1D versus 5-HT1A selectivity, we attempted to take advantage of possible differences in the regions of bulk tolerance associated with the 5-position of the 5-HT binding sites for these two populations of receptors. Examination of a series of 5-(alkyloxy)tryptamine derivatives demonstrated that compounds with unbranched alkyl groups of up to eight carbon atoms bind with high affinity at human 5-HT1Dβ receptors (K(i) 300-fold). Branching of the alkyl chain, to 5-[(7,7-dimethylheptyl)oxy]tryptamine (15), results in an agent with somewhat lower affinity (5-HT1Dβ K(i) = 2.3 nM) but with greater (i.e., 400-fold) 5-HT1D versus 5-HT1A selectivity. Replacement of the oxygen atom of 10 with a methylene group (i.e., 20), replacement of the O-proximate methylene with a carbonyl group (i.e., ester 26), or cyclization of the aminoethyl moiety to a carbazole (e.g., 34, 36) or β- carboline (i.e., 37), result in reduced affinity and/or selectivity. None of the compounds examined displayed significant selectivity for 5-HT1Dβ versus 5-HT1Dα sites; nevertheless, compounds 10 (recently shown to behave as a 5- HT1D agonist) and 15 represent the most 5-HT1D versus 5-HT1A selective agents reported to date.

3-Amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles are easily prepared from the readily available 3-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles by conversion of the latter to the p-toluene- or methanesulfonate ester, followed by nucleophilic displacement with azide ion.The resulting 3-azido-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles are then catalytically hydrogenated to their 3-amino counterparts.
