Title: Aminomethyl-2,6-difluorophenols as a novel class of increased lipophilicity GABA(C) receptor antagonists.

Abstract: 3- and 4-(Aminomethyl)-2,6-difuorophenols were tested for activity against the three major classes of GABA receptors. 4-(Amninomethyl)-2,6difluorophenol was shown to be a competitive and somewhat selective antagonist at p1 GABA(C) receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes (K(B) = 75.5 microM with a 95% Confidence Interval range of 75.2 microM to 75.8 microM). This is the first in a novel class of increased lipophilicity GABA(C) receptor antagonists with little activity at alpha1beta2gamma2 GABA(A) and GABA(B) receptors.
