title: Synthesis and muscarinic activities of O-[(benzyl- or benzoyl-pyrazolyl)propynyl]-oximes of N-methylpiperidinone, 3-tropinone, and 3-quinuclidinone.
abstract: The synthesis of O-propynyloximes of N-methylpiperidinone, 3-tropinone, and 3-quinuclidinone, containing several pyrazole frameworks is described, together with their muscarinic receptor affinities. Compounds derived from N-methylpiperidinone or 3-tropinone and N-(4-methoxybenzyl)- or N-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)pyrazole showed moderate activity for muscarinic receptors in the rat central nervous system. A semi-empirical AM1 calculation has shown that the O-[(benzoyl-pyrazolyl)propynyl]-oximes of tropinone fit a previously described muscarinic pharmacophoric model, revealing structural features useful for the development of new muscarinic agents.
