Chemistry:EZS-8

From HandWiki

EZS-8, also known as 3-(2-aminoethyl)quinazoline-2,4-dione, is a very-low-potency serotonin 5-HT2A receptor partial agonist related to ketanserin.[1][2][3][4] It has about 0.15% of the potency (EC50 = 66,000 nM) and 46% of the efficacy (Emax) of serotonin as a serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist in vitro.[1][2][3][4] The N-(2-methoxy)benzyl analogue of EZS-8, RH-34, has 250-fold greater potency as a serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonist in comparison.[2][3][4] EZS-8 was first described in the scientific literature by 1999.[1] N-Benzyl derivatives of EZS-8 like RH-34 had been described as early as 1996 or 1998.[5][6]

"The aim of the study was to characterize the partial agonism of congeners of well-established 5-HT2A receptor ligands, identified in a series of ergot alkaloids (so-called ergoline reverse esters with lysergol and dihydrolysergol-I as alcoholic component), indolyltetrahydropyridines (RU 24969 and two derivatives), and quinazolinediones (derivatives of ketanserin), at 5-HT2A receptors in rat tail artery. [...] Quinazolinediones (derivatives of ketanserin) showed weak agonist activity (pKp = 3.83 - 4.66, α = 0.17 - 0,46) and antagonized contractile responses to 5-HT with calculated pKp values of 3.52 - 5.12.".
