pubmed:abstractText
The conformational characteristics of two series of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor agonists, monophenolic N,N-dialkylated 2-aminotetralins and trans-2-phenylcyclopropylamines, have been studied by a combination of experimental (NMR spectroscopy) and theoretical (molecular mechanics and MNDO calculations) methods. In addition, molecular electrostatic potentials have been calculated for selected conformations and the absolute configuration of the potent 5-HT-receptor agonist (+)-cis-8-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin has been determined, by X-ray crystallography of the synthetic precursor, to be 1S,2R. Results obtained are discussed in terms of conformational, steric, and electronic requirements for 5-HT-receptor activation. It is suggested that different conformations of the 5-HT-receptor agonists (1R,2S)-2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-N,N-di-n-propylcyclopropylamine [(1R,2S)-4] and its 3-hydroxy isomer (1R,2S)-5 are able to activate 5-HT receptors. The strongly increased stereoselectivity of 2, 4, and 5 as compared to that of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT; 1) is rationalized on the basis of steric factors. Conformational factors appear to be responsible for the inability of the trans-C1-methyl-substituted derivative of 1 to activate 5-HT receptors.
