POTENT AND SELECTIVE INHIBITORS OF MONOAMINE TRANSPORTERS; METHOD OF MAKING; AND USE THEREOF
-
Paragraph 0073; 0084, (2014/09/29)
Disclosed herein are bisarylmethylthioacetamides and bisarylmethylthioethylamines useful as inhibitors of monoamine transporters. The compounds are potent and/or selective inhibitors of dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT), and/or norepinephrine (NE) reuptake via their respective transporters, DAT, SERT and NET. Also disclosed are methods for eliciting a wake-promoting or cognitive or attention enhancing effect and for treating substance use disorders, attention deficit (hyperactivity) disorder, depressive disorders, bipolar disorder or other neuropsychiatric disorders sleep disorders or cognitive impairment using the compounds.

A series of modafinil (1) analogues were synthesized wherein (1) para-halo-substitutents were added to the aryl rings, (2) the sulfoxide function was removed, and (3) the primary amide group was replaced with secondary and tertiary amides and amines to investigate the effects of these chemical modifications on dopamine transporter, serotonin transporter, and norepinephrine transporter binding. In addition, the locomotor-stimulant effects in mice of (±)-modafinil (1), its R-and S-enantiomers, and its para-chloro sulfinylacetamide analogue (5c) were compared to those of cocaine.
