Abstract

Acyclic noncompetitive antagonists of ionotropic γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors, bearing an ester or ether linkage, were designed, synthesized, and assayed for their inhibition of the specific binding of [3H] 4′-ethynyl-4-n-propylbicycloorthobenzoate (EBOB), a radiolabeled noncompetitive antagonist, to rat brain and housefly head membranes. 5-[4- (3, 3-Dimethylbutoxycarbonyl) phenyl]-4-pentynoic acid (DBCPP), a butyl benzoate ...
