There has been much attention to biased ligands of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for potential pharmacological benefits. Recently, we reported N-((6-chloro-2'-methoxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl)methyl)ethanamine 1 as G protein-biased agonist of 5-HT7R, which could be used as a chemical probe for the study on treatment discovery of autism spectrum disorder. Herein, we describe the synthesis of derivatives of the compound 1 and their biological evaluations in both G protein and β-arrestin signaling pathway. Total 16 compounds were synthesized and evaluated, and the compounds 3c, 3f, 3i, and 3p could be called as G protein-biased agonists like the compound 1. Among the four compounds, the compound 3c was the best in efficacy with an Emax value of 73% and the compound 3f was the most potent agonist with an EC50 value of 0.094 μM.

Reactions of N-chlorobenzylalkylamines in which the alkyl group is Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu, and sec-Bu with MeONa-MeOH have been investigated kinetically.The eliminations are quantitative and regiospecific, producing only benzylidenealkylamines.The reactions are first order in base and first order in substrate, and an E2 mechanism is evident.The relative rates of elimination at 25 deg C are 1/0.5/0.3/0.2/0.01 for Me/Et/i-Pr/sec-Bu/t-Bu alkyl substituents, respectively.The results are attributed to repulsive interaction between the alkyl group and the base in the transition state.Hammett ρ and kH/kD values decreased, but the ΔH(excit.) and ΔS(excit.) values increased with bulkier alkyl substituents.Changes in the transition-state parameters with the substrate steric effect are interpreted with variation in structure of the imine-forming transition states.
