Abstract

The synthesis and the binding study of new 3-iodiopyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4] benzotriazine 5-oxides 8-alkyloxy substituted are reported. The replacement at position 3 with an iodine atom, with respect to substituents capable to form a three centered hydrogen bond and/or to form pi-pi stacking interaction with receptor protein, gave high affinity ligands, independently of the 8-alkyloxy substituent. High-affinity ligands were studied in mice in vivo for their pharmacological effects, considering five potential benzodiazepine actions: anxiolytic-like effects, motor coordination, anticonvulsant action, mouse learning and memory impairment, and ethanol-potentiating action. Compounds 5c and 5'c have an inverse agonist profile and for the first time is evidenced a pro-mnemonic activity. These compounds were evaluated also for their binding at Benzodiazepine site on GABA(A) receptor complex (GABA(A)/BzR complex) subtype to evaluate their subtype selectivity.
