Abstract

Selective dopamine (DA) D4 receptor antagonists may be effective antipsychotics, without the extrapyramidal side effects which are well established for DA D2 antagonists. In order to facilitate the design of new selective DA D4 receptor antagonists we are currently developing a DA D4 3D-pharmacophore model. Previously, a 3D-pharmacophore model for DA D2 antagonists has been developedl. This model rationalizes the high affinity of both enantiomers of octoclothepin (1)2.
