McN-5558 is a drug which acts as a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. It was investigated for potential application as an antidepressant, but was never developed for clinical use. [1] [2]

Pharmacology

McN-5558 is described as a serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) with equilibrium constants (Kis) for various neurotransmitter transporters: [2]

Compound 37b norepinephrine transporter
(NE)
dopamine transporter
(DAT)
serotonin transporter
(SERT)
racemic1.054.323.0
(+)1.525.79.1
(-)257076902920

These data show that virtually all of the binding affinities resides in a single enantiomer. Consequently, the compound displays a very high eudysmic ratio.

SAR

In terms of the SAR, the meta-trifluorophenyl group was seen for fenfluramine, Benfluorex, and Ethyltrifluoromethylaminoindane. [3] [4] [5] These are anorexigenic agents for the treatment of obesity and eating disorders.
