Abstract

The synthesis and pharmacological activity of a new series of bicyclic diazepinones with dual activity toward the α2δ-1 subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels (Caα2δ-1) and the norepinephrine transporter (NET) are reported. Exploration of the positions amenable for substitution on a nonaminoacidic Caα2δ-1 scaffold allowed the identification of favorable positions for the attachment of NET pharmacophores. Among the patterns explored, attachment of the 2-ethylamino-9-methyl-6-phenyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-pyrimido[4,5-e][1,4]diazepin-5-one framework to the meta-position of the phenyl ring of the 3-methylamino-1-phenylpropoxy and 3-methylamino-1-thiophenylpropoxy moieties provided dual compounds with excellent NET functionality. Alternative bicyclic frameworks were also explored, and some lead molecules were identified, which showed a balanced dual profile and exhibited good ADMET properties.
