A series of N-(4-piperidinyl)-2-indolinones were discovered as a new structural class of nociceptin receptor (NOP) ligands. Unlike other previously reported classes of NOP receptor ligands, modifications of the piperidine N substituents afforded both potent agonists and antagonists, with modest selectivities over other opioid receptors. The SAR revealed in this new series will provide important insights for the development of pharmacophores for agonist and antagonist actions at the NOP receptor. ...[more]
