A series of new pyrazole-condensed 6,5,5 tricyclic compounds were synthesized and tested to evaluate their binding affinities at both central (CBR) and peripheral (PBR) benzodiazepine receptors. Some 1-aryl-5- phenylpyrazole derivatives were also prepared and tested for comparison with their corresponding rigid tricyclic analogs. Among the newly synthesized 1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-indeno[1,2-c]pyrazoles bearing both an ethoxycarbonyl group at position 3 and a carbonyl function at the position 4, compound 4b emerged as a new potent (IC50 = 26.4 nM) and selective CBR ligand. The 4-oxo-1-aryl-1,4-dihydro-indeno[1,2-c]pyrazole diethylamide derivative 14a was instead identified as a relatively potent (IC50 = 124 nM) but highly selective PBR ligand.
