Piperidine and cyclohexyl ring homologues of the high-affinity dopamine (DA) uptake inhibitor 1-[1-(2-benzo[b]thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (BTCP, 3) were each prepared in four steps from the appropriate cycloalkanones. These compounds were tested for their ability to displace [3H]BTCP and [3H]cocaine and to inhibit

In mice treated with gamma-butyrolactone (GBL, 400 mg/kg), [3H]BTCP specific binding was increased and ID50 values of BTCP and cocaine for the prevention of [3H]BTCP

Congeners of the potent dopamine (DA) re-uptake inhibitor 1-[1-(2-benzo[b]thiophenyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (BTCP) are unexpectedly able to bind in the rat cerebellum, although this structure is devoid of dopaminergic nerve endings. In line with previous studies the hypothesis that they bind to low

We previously reported (J. Med. Chem. 1993, 36, 1188-1193) that changes to the ring size of the piperidine and cyclohexyl rings of the high-affinity and selective dopamine (DA)-uptake inhibitor 1-[1-(2-benzo[b]thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (BTCP, 2) caused different, and in some cases opposite, changes
