The agnostic activity of Quinpirole (3a) at the D2 dopamine (DA) receptor suggested that the dopaminergic pharmacophore embedded in 3a was the 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-pyrazole (5) moiety. On that basis we have synthesized some derivatives of 5 bearing on the amino group alkyl and alkylaryl substituents. The affinities of 5 and its derivatives for the D1 and D2 DA receptor subtypes were evaluated in rat striatum by binding assays. None of these compounds show affinity for the D1 receptor. In the D2 binding assay only the N,N-di-(2-phenylethyl) (5i) and N-n-propyl-N-[2-(3-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl] (5j) derivatives show affinities comparable to that of Quinpirole. These results do not support the postulate that the 4-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-pyrazole is a bioisostere of the catechol nucleus of DA.
