8-Methylureido-4,5-dihydro-4-oxo-10H-imidazo[1,2-a]indeno[1,2-e]pyrazines: highly potent in vivo AMPA antagonists.
???displayArticle.abstract???
A novel series of readily water soluble 8-methylureido-4,5-dihydro-4-oxo-10H-imidazo[1,2-a]indeno[1,2-e]++ +pyrazines were synthesized. The -10-yl acetic acid ((+)-3) and -10-carboxylidene (4) derivatives exhibit potent affinities (IC50=4 and 19 nM, respectively) and antagonist properties (IC50 = 2 and 3 nM, respectively) at the ionotropic AMPA receptor. These compounds also display anticonvulsant properties against both electrically and sound-induced convulsions in mice after ip, sc and iv administration with ED50 values between 0.9 and 11 mg/kg, thus suggesting adequate brain penetration.
