(+)-cis-8-Hydroxy-1-methyl-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin: a potent and highly stereoselective 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor agonist

Abstract: C1-Methylated derivatives of the potent 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT, 1) were synthesized and tested for central 5-HT and dopamine receptor activity by use of a biochemical test method in rats. cis-8-Hydroxy-1-methyl-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8) was found to be a 5-HT receptor agonist. The (+)-enantiomer of 8 had a potency equal to that of 1, whereas (-)-8 and the trans isomer (+/-)-9 were inactive.

“…Further similarly designed experiments examined the cutaneous blood flow and SCVAR effects of drugs that interact with 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors, particularly the specific 5-HT 1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT (Arvidsson et al 1987) and the specific 5-HT 2A receptor antagonist SR46349B (Rinaldi-Carmona et al 1992). This pattern of 5-HT receptor interaction is considered important in the manner whereby atypical antipsychotics exert their effects on dopaminergic neurotransmission (Meltzer et al 2003).…”

“…We have now determined whether activation of 5‐HT 1A receptors by the specific agonist 8‐hydroxy‐2‐(di‐ n ‐propylamino)tetralin (8‐OH‐DPAT) (Arvidsson et al 1987) can reduce body temperature by increasing cutaneous blood flow, thereby facilitating transfer of heat from the body. In conscious rabbits we first induced vasoconstriction of the ear pinna vascular bed by exposing the animals to a cold environment.…”

“…In previous studies, the racemic form of 8-OH-DPAT [(6)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tertralin hydrobromide] has been widely used as a selective 5-HT 1A receptor agonist (Arvidsson et al, 1987). The present experiment was conducted with the more active enantiomer, (R)-(1)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-npropylamino)tertralin hydrobromide ((R)-8-OH-DPAT) (SigmaAldrich, Stockholm, Sweden), which, unlike the racemic form, is a full agonist at the 5-HT 1A receptor (Cornfield et al, 1991).…”
