We have recently reported thatN-alkyl andN-acyl naltrindole (NTI) derivatives showed activities for the delta opioid receptor (DOR) ranging widely from full inverse agonists to full agonists. We newly designed sulfonamide-type NTI derivatives in order to investigate the effects of theN-substituent on the functional activities because the side chain and S=O part in the sulfonamide moiety located in spatially different positions compared with those in the alkylamine and amide moieties. Among the tested compounds, cyclopropylsulfonamide9f(SYK-839) was the most potent full inverse agonist for the DOR, whereas phenethylsulfonamide9e(SYK-901) showed full DOR agonist activity with moderate potency. These NTI derivatives are expected to be useful compounds for investigation of the molecular mechanism inducing these functional activities.
