A series of 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-indoles substituted in the 1-position with 4-piperidinyl, 1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl, and 4-piperazinyl was synthesized. By variation of the substituents in the benzene part of the indole nucleus in 1-[2-[4-[3-4-fluorophenyl)-1H-indol-1-yl]-1-piperidinyl]-ethyl]-2- imidazolidinones, the highest 5-HT2 receptor affinity and selectivity with respect to dopamine D2 receptors and alpha 1 adrenoceptors were obtained by 5-methyl substitution. Different substituents were introduced in the 1-position of the piperidine ring in the 5-methyl-substituted derivative. Thus replacement of the 2-(2-imidazolidinon-1-yl)ethyl side chain with a 2-(1,3-dimethyl-1-ureido)ethyl or methyl substituent resulted in unchanged affinity and selectivity for 5-HT2 receptors. Replacement with a 2-[3-(2-propyl)-2-imidazolidinon-1-yl]ethyl side chain reduced binding to alpha 1 adrenoceptors with a factor of four, while affinities for 5-HT2 and D2 receptors were retained, compared to the 3-unsubstituted imidazolidinone. Indoles substituted in the 1-position with 4-piperazinyl had generally weaker affinity for both 5-HT2 and D2 receptors compared to corresponding 4-piperidinyl- and 1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl-substituted indoles. Introduction of a methyl group in the 2-position of the 5-methyl-substituted indole resulted in further increase of selectivity for the 5-HT2 receptor. Compounds with potent receptor binding also potently inhibited the quipazine-induced head twitch syndrome in rats. The compounds were equally active after oral and subcutaneous administration and showed a long duration of action (> 24 h). In general, the derivatives were found to be considerably more potent at 24 h than at 2 h after the administration. The compounds within this series were prepared as analogues of the previously described 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(4-piperidyl)-1H-indoles by interchange of the C-3 carbon atom and the nitrogen atom in the indole nucleus. The pharmacological results indicate that this isosteric replacement results in higher selectivity for 5-HT2 receptors compared to the former series. The 1-[2-[4-[2,5-dimethyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-indol-1-yl]-1- piperidinyl]ethyl]-2-imidazolidinone has high affinity for 5-HT2 receptors (IC50 = 3.4 nM) and extremely low affinity for both dopamine D2 receptors (IC50 = 6900 nM) and alpha 1 adrenoceptors (IC50 = 2300 nM).
