Abstract

The multireceptor strategy was implemented to obtain potential antipsychotics and/or antidepressants in a series of long-chain arylpiperazines bearing a tricyclic theophylline fragment. Their binding profile toward monoaminergic receptors (α1, 5-HT(1A), 5-HT(2A), 5-HT6, 5-HT7, D2, D3) was determined as well. The selected compounds 7 and 9 were tested in functional in vivo models and showed, like atypical antipsychotic drugs, presynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptor agonistic and postsynaptic 5-HT(1A), 5-HT(2A), and D2 receptor antagonistic activity.
