<p>N-[3-Hydroxy-2-(7-methoxy-1-naphthyl)propyl] propanamide (I), its enantiomers and base addition salts, are new. N-[3-Hydroxy-2-(7-methoxy-1-naphthyl)propyl] propanamide of formula (I), its enantiomers and base addition salts, are new. An independent claim is included for the preparation of (I). [Image] ACTIVITY : Hypnotic; Tranquilizer; Antidepressant; Cardiovascular-Gen; Gastrointestinal-Gen; Neuroleptic; Anorectic; Anticonvulsant; Antidiabetic; Antiparkinsonian; Nootropic; Antimigraine; Neuroprotective; Cerebroprotective; Contraceptive; Endocrine-Gen; Immunomodulator; Cytostatic. MECHANISM OF ACTION : Melatonin receptor binder. The ability of (I) to bind with melatonin was tested. The results showed that N-[3-hydroxy-2-(7-methoxy-1-naphthyl)propyl] propanamide exhibited an inhibition constant value of 1.4 nM and 3.2 nM to bind with melatonin receptors MT 1 and MT 2, respectively.</p> |
