Recent reports indicate that α6β2/3γ2 GABAAR selective ligands may be important for the treatment of trigeminal activation-related pain and neuropsychiatric disorders with sensori-motor gating deficits. Based on 3 functionally α6β2/3γ2 GABAAR selective pyrazoloquinolinones, 42 novel analogs were synthesized, and their in vitro metabolic stability and cytotoxicity as well as their in vivo pharmacokinetics, basic behavioral pharmacology, and effects on locomotion were investigated. Incorporation of deuterium into the methoxy substituents of the ligands increased their duration of action via improved metabolic stability and bioavailability, while their selectivity for the GABAAR α6 subtype was retained. 8b was identified as the lead compound with a substantially improved pharmacokinetic profile. The ligands allosterically modulated diazepam insensitive α6β2/3γ2 GABAARs and were functionally silent at diazepam sensitive α1β2/3γ2 GABAARs, thus no sedation was detected. In addition, these analogs were not cytotoxic, which render them interesting candidates for treatment of CNS disorders mediated by GABAAR α6β2/3γ2 subtypes.

In order to probe structure-activity relationships of association with ferriprotoporphyrin IX (log K) and inhibition of β-hematin formation, a series of 4-aminoquinolines with varying substituents at the 7-position (X) have been synthesized. These have been further elaborated by introduction of two different R groups on the 4-amino nitrogen atom in the form of methyl (R = Me) and ethylamine (R = EtNH2) side chains. Data for a previously investigated series containing an N,N-diethyl-ethylamine side chain were also compared with the findings of this study. Experimentally, log K values for the simple 4-aminoquinoline series (R = H) were found to correlate with the hydrophobicity constant (π) of the group X. The log K values for the series with R = Me and EtNH2 were found to correlate with those of the series with R = H. The log of the 50% β-hematin inhibitory activity (log BHIA50) was found to correlate with log K and either meta (σm) or para (σp) Hammett constants for the series with R = Me and EtNH2, but not the simple series with R = H. To further improve predictability, correlations with ab initio electrostatic parameters, namely Mulliken and CHelpG charges were investigated. The best correlations were found with CHelpG charges which indicated that log K values can be predicted from the charges on atom H-8 and the group X in the quinolinium species computed in vacuum, while log BHIA50 values can be predicted from the CHelpG charges on C-7, C-8 and N-1 for the neutral species in vacuum. These correlations indicate that association and inhibition of β-hematin formation are separately determined. They also suggest that electron withdrawing groups at the 7-position, but not necessarily hydrophobic groups are required for hemozoin inhibition. The upshot is that the correlations imply that considerably more hydrophilic hemozoin inhibitors are feasible.
