Abstract :
Quaternization via N-methylation of the terminal amines of a series of 3-(dialkylaminoethoxy)pyridines resulted in analogues that displayed up to 50–60-fold enhanced affinity for nicotinic acetylcholinergic (nACh) receptors. Several of these compounds displayed antinociceptive properties in mice using the tail-flick assay and serve as possible leads for the development of novel analgesic agents.
