Abstract :

An expeditious microwave-assisted synthesis of 4BP-TQS, its enantiomeric separation, and their functional evaluation is reported. Electrophysiological characterization in Xenopus oocytes revealed that activity exclusively resided in the (+)-enantiomer 1b (GAT107) and (-)-enantiomer 1a did not affect its activity when coapplied. X-ray crystallography studies revealed the absolute stereochemistry of 1b to be 3aR,4S,9bS. 1b represents the most potent ago-PAM of alpha7 nAChRs available to date and is considered for further in vivo evaluation.
