- Abstract
Starting from lead compound 1, we demonstrate how X-ray structural data can be used to understand SAR and expediently optimize bioavailability in a novel series of AMPA receptor modulators, furnishing 5 with improved bioavailability and robust in vivo activity., (Copyright © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
