Dopaminergic activity in a series of N-substituted 2-aminopyrimidines.
A series of N-substituted 2-aminopyrimidines were prepared and tested for pharmacological activity associated with stimulation of central and peripheral dopamine receptors using piribedil as the reference standard. Most of the new compounds showed some degree of dopaminergic activity although in many cases central activity was not accompanied by peripheral activity and vice versa. Clear relationships between structure and activity were not apparent and none of the new compounds possessed dopamine receptor blocking properties.
