  • A new series of kynurenic acid amides were created that are derived from ring-enlarged indole-2-carboxamides.
  • These compounds are specifically active as NMDA receptor antagonists that target the NR2B subtype.
  • The text details the process of synthesizing these compounds and explores their structure-activity relationships (SAR).

Article Abstract

A novel series of kynurenic acid amides, ring-enlarged derivatives of indole-2-carboxamides, was prepared and identified as in vivo active NR2B subtype selective NMDA receptor antagonists. The synthesis and SAR studies are discussed.
