ABSTRACT
The potential therapeutic benefit of compounds able to activate AMPA receptors (AMPArs) has led to a search for new AMPAr positive modulators. Among them, 8-chloro-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-3,6-dimethyl-pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide (1) has attracted particular attention, because it is one of the most active benzothiadiazine-derived positive modulators of the AMPA receptor. It possesses two stereogenic centers, C3 and C6, thus it can exist as four stereoisomers. In this work, preliminary in silico studies suggested that 1 interacts stereoselectively with AMPArs. Single stereoisomers of 1 were prepared in order to evaluate their biological activity. However, studies regarding the configurational stability of the investigated compounds suggested a rapid epimerization at C3 in aqueous solvents, and we can expect the same reaction in vivo. Thus, electrophysiological experiments were performed on the two epimeric mixtures, (3∗,6R)- and (3∗,6S)- 8-chloro-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-3,6-dimethyl-pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide, in order to evaluate their activities as positive allosteric modulators of AMPArs. The obtained data suggest that the (3∗,6S) epimeric mixture is the most active in positively modulating AMPArs, confirming in silico results.
