title: 2,4-Dicarboxy-pyrroles as selective non-competitive mGluR1 antagonists: an exploration of the role of the pyrrolic scaffold.
abstract: Following the disclosure of 3-(1,2,2-trimethylpropyl) 4-[3,5-dimethyl-2-propyloxycarbonyl]pyrrolecarboxylate as a potent and selective mGluR1 non-competitive antagonist, the role and the importance of the pyrrole template were investigated. Different aromatic moieties were investigated as possible bio-isosteric replacement of the original scaffold and some of them were shown to be partially able to mimic the properties of the original pyrrole ring.
