Abstract

Substituted 3,4-diphenyl-1,3-thiazols were identified as a class of novel and potent monoamine transporter inhibitors through a 3-D pharmacophore search using a new pharmacophore model derived from mazindol. The most potent compound (13) has Ki values of 24 and 23 nM in binding to dopamine transporter and inhibition of dopamine reuptake, respectively.
