Spiro[pyrrolidine-3,3'-oxindoles] and Their Indoline Analogues as New 5-HT6 Receptor Chemotypes

Synthetic derivatives of spiro[pyrrolidinyl-3,3'-oxindole] alkaloids (coerulescine analogues) were investigated as new ligands for aminergic G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). The chemical starting point 2'-phenylspiro[indoline-3,3'-pyrrolidin]-2-one scaffold was identified by virtu...

Description
Summary:Synthetic derivatives of spiro[pyrrolidinyl-3,3'-oxindole] alkaloids (coerulescine analogues) were investigated as new ligands for aminergic G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). The chemical starting point 2'-phenylspiro[indoline-3,3'-pyrrolidin]-2-one scaffold was identified by virtual fragment screening utilizing ligand- and structure based methods. As a part of the hit-to-lead optimization a structure-activity relationship analysis was performed to explore the differently substituted 2'-phenyl-derivatives, introducing the phenylsulphonyl pharmacophore and examining the corresponding reduced spiro[pyrrolidine-3,3'-indoline] scaffold. The optimization process led to ligands with submicromolar affinities towards the 5-HT₆ receptor that might serve as viable leads for further optimization.
