Abstract: A series of 3-phenoxypropyl piperidine benzimidazol-2-one analogues have been discovered as novel NOP receptor agonists. Structure-activity relationships have been explored via N-3 substitution of the benzimidazol-2-one with a range of functionality. The N-methyl acetamide derivative (+)-7f was found to be a high-affinity, potent NOP agonist with greater than 100-fold selectivity over the MOP receptor. Furthermore (+)-7f was shown to be both antinociceptive and sedative when administered iv to rodents.
