Abstract: Orexins are neuropeptides that regulate wakefulness and arousal. Small molecule antagonists of orexin receptors may provide a novel therapy for the treatment of insomnia and other sleep disorders. In this Letter we describe the design and synthesis of conformationally constrained N,N-disubstituted 1,4-diazepanes as orexin receptor antagonists. The design of these constrained analogs was guided by an understanding of the preferred solution and solid state conformation of the diazepane central ring.
