A series of potent indol-3-yl-tetramethylcyclopropyl ketones have been prepared as CB 2 cannabinoid receptor ligands. Two unsubstituted indoles ( 5, 32) were the starting points for an investigation of the effect of indole ring substitutions on CB 2 and CB 1 binding affinities and activity in a CB 2 in vitro functional assay. Indole ring substitutions had varying effects on CB 2 and CB 1 binding, but were generally detrimental to agonist activity. Substitution on the indole ring did lead to improved CB 2/CB 1 binding selectivity in some cases (i.e., 7- 9, 15- 20). All indoles with the morpholino-ethyl side chain ( 32- 43) exhibited weaker binding affinity and less agonist activity relative to that of their tetrahydropyranyl-methyl analogs ( 5- 31). Several agonists were active in the complete Freund's adjuvant model of chronic inflammatory thermal hyperalgesia ( 32, 15).
