Abstract
A series of novel 3-(1H-indol-3-yl)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione derivatives were synthesised and evaluated for their 5-HT1A/D2/5-HT2A/5-HT6/5-HT7 receptor affinity and serotonin reuptake inhibition. Most of the evaluated compounds displayed high affinities for 5-HT1A receptors (e.g., 4cKi = 2.3 nM, 4lKi = 3.2 nM). The antidepressant activity of the selected compounds was screened in vivo using the forced swim test (FST). The results indicate that compound MW005 (agonist of the pre- and postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptor) exhibited promising affinities for the 5-HT1A/SERT/D2/5-HT6/5-HT7 receptors and showed an antidepressant-like activity in the FST model.Entities:
