3-[(2-Methyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)ethynyl]- pyridine: A Potent and Highly Selective Metabotropic Glutamate Subtype 5 Receptor Antagonist with Anxiolytic Activity

TL;DR: Seeking to improve the properties of 2-Methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)pyridine led to the synthesis of compound 9, a highly selective mGlu5 receptor antagonist that is 5-fold more potent than 3 in the rat fear-potentiated startle model of anxiety.
Journal ArticleDOI

5-[(2-Methyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)ethynyl]-2,3'-bipyridine: a highly potent, orally active metabotropic glutamate subtype 5 (mGlu5) receptor antagonist with anxiolytic activity.

TL;DR: The title compound, 5-[(2-methyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)ethynyl]-2,3'-bipyridine, is highly potent in vitro, has good in vivo receptor occupancy, and is efficacious in the rat fear-potentiated startle model of anxiety following oral dosing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discovery of novel modulators of metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype-5

TL;DR: A series of potent and selective mGluR5 antagonists were synthesized and evaluated in vitro and in vivo and it was found that a pyridyl functionality is a potential replacement for acetonitrile in the lead structure, with 2-p Pyridyl being most favored.
Journal ArticleDOI

The geminal dimethyl analogue of Flurbiprofen as a novel Aβ42 inhibitor and potential Alzheimer's disease modifying agent

TL;DR: Methylflurbiprofen 6 exhibited similar in vitro Abeta42 inhibition to its parent NSAID Flurbip rofen and was further evaluated in the Tg2576 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease and an animal model of gastro-intestinal impairment, but proved unviable for further clinical development.
