Abstract :
The synthesis of a series of novel 2-(aminoalkyl)-2,3,3a,8-tetrahydrodibenzo[c,f]isoxazolo[2,3-a]azepine derivatives as well as their 5-HT2A/2C and H1 receptor binding affinities are described. The in vivo activity as potential anxiolytics of the synthesised compounds was measured in a mCPP challenge test. One of the compounds, 2a, proved to be a potent 5-HT2A/2C receptor antagonist showing as well oral activity and therefore could be considered as a potential anxiolytic/antidepressant agent.
