Abstract

The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of new 5-alkylaminopyrazolo[4,3-e]1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidines as antagonists of the A3 adenosine receptor (AR) was explored with the principal aim to establish the directionality of 5-substitutions inside the orthosteric binding site of the A3 AR. All the synthesized compds. showed affinity for the hA3 AR from nanomolar to subnanomolar range. In particular, the most potent and selective antagonist, I, presents an (S) α-phenylethylamino moiety at the 5 position (Ki hA3 = 0.3 nM). Using an in silico receptor-driven approach, the authors have detd. the most favorable orientation of the substitutions at the 5 position of the pyrazolo[4,3-e]1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine (PTP) scaffold, opening the possibility for further derivatizations aimed at directing the N5 position toward the extracellular environment.
