5-Thienyltryptamine derivatives as serotonin 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonists: potential treatments for migraine

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2000 May 1;10(9):903-5. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(00)00133-5.

Abstract

A series of 5-(2- or 3-thienyl)tryptamine derivatives (9) has been synthesized and shown to be potent and selective 5-HT1D versus 5-HT1B receptor agonists and, therefore, potential treatments for migraine.
