ABSTRACT
A series of diastereomeric 2-(2-pyrrolidinyl)-1,4-benzodioxanes bearing a small, hydrogen-bonding substituent at the 7-, 6-, or 5-position of benzodioxane have been studied for α4ß2 and α3ß4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor affinity and activity. Analogous to C(5)H replacement with N and to a much greater extent than decoration at C(7), substitution at benzodioxane C(5) confers very high α4ß2/α3ß4 selectivity to the α4ß2 partial agonism. Docking into the two receptor structures recently determined by cryo-electron microscopy and site-directed mutagenesis at the minus ß2 side converge in indicating that the limited accommodation capacity of the ß2 pocket, compared to that of the ß4 pocket, makes substitution at C(5) rather than at more projecting C(7) position determinant for this pursued subtype selectivity.
