Abstract
A series of diaryl amides was designed and synthesized as novel nonethynyl mGluR5 antagonists. The systematic variation of the pharmacophoric groups led to the identification of a lead compound that demonstrated micromolar affinity for the mGluR5. Further optimization resulted in compounds with improved binding affinities and antagonist profiles, in vitro.
