Abstract

In our pursuit to identify selective ligands for Bz/GABAA receptor subtypes, a novel pyrazolo- [1,5-a]pyrimidine derivative (4), the azaisostere of zolpidem, was synthesized and evaluated in vitro on bovine brain homogenate and on recombinant benzodiazepine receptors (alphax beta2/3 gamma2, x= 1-3, 5) expressed in HEK293 cells. Compound 4 displayed affinity only for alpha1 beta2 gamma2 subtype (Ki ) 31 nM), and in an in-depth, in vivo study it revealed sedative and anxiolytic-like properties without any amnesic and myorelaxant effects in rodents.
