Abstract

Changing the N,N-(dimethylamino)ethyl side chain in the N-[3-(aminoethyl)inden-5-yl]sulfonamide 5-HT(6) serotonin receptor agonists 1 by a conformationally rigid guanylhydrazone moiety at the indene 3-position led to the identification of the title indanylguanylhydrazones 6, which exhibited excellent binding affinities and an antagonistic response at the 5-HT(6) receptor, with K(i) and IC(50) values in the nanomolar range (K(i) >or= 1.2 nM, IC(50) >or= 47 nM, and I(max) <or= 173%).
