Although dopamine D(3) receptors have been associated with cocaine abuse, little is known about the consequences of chronic cocaine on functional activity of D(3) receptor-preferring compounds. This study examined the behavioral effects of D(3) receptor-selective 4-phenylpiperazines with differing in vitro
The 4-(m-OH-phenyl)piperidines are a flexible fragment of the morphine/benzomorphan fused-ring opioids. Analogs in this family were synthesized with varying 4-alkyl substituents increasing in bulk from H through methyl, n-propyl, to t-butyl, each with the three N-substituents methyl, allyl, and phenethyl.
Syntheses of two 4-phenylpiperidines from bromobenzene have been developed involving anchoring to a fluorous-tag, Ir-catalysed borylation, Pd- and Co-catalysed elaboration then traceless cleavage. Although performed using 'cold' (i.e. unlabelled) bromobenzene as the starting material, these routes have been designed to

sigma receptors may represent an exciting new approach for the development of novel psychotherapeutic agents. Unfortunately, many of the commonly used sigma ligands lack selectivity (e.g., many bind at phencyclidine or dopamine receptors) or suffer from other serious drawbacks. Recently

Differences in the anorectic activity of morphinan (e.g., naltrexone) and 3,4-dimethyl-4-(3-hydroxyphenyl)piperidine (4PP) opioid receptor antagonists have been described. In an attempt to explain these differences, the influence of Na(+) on opioid binding affinity and functional activity of 4PP antagonists was
