A series of 8-substituted analogues of 9-(3-aminobenzyl)-6-(dimethylamino)-9H-purine (8) were synthesized and tested for their ability to bind to the benzodiazepine receptor (BZR) in rat brain tissue. The most active compound was the 8-bromo-9-(3-formamidobenzyl) analogue 16 (IC50 = 0.011 microM), which
