Background:

2-(1-Piperazinyl)pyrimidine is an antagonist of α₂-adrenergic receptors (α₂-ARs; pA₂= 6.8 in rat brain synaptosomes) and active metabolite of various azapirones, including buspirone.^1,2,3,4It is formed from buspirone by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP3A4 in human liver microsomes.⁵2-(1-Piperazinyl)pyrimidine inhibits decreases in gastrointestinal transit induced by clonidine in rats (ED₅₀= 0.8 mg/kg).²It increases drinking in the Vogel punished drinking task, indicating anxiolytic-like activity, in rats when administered at doses ranging from 1 to 4 mg/kg.³2-(1-Piperazinyl)pyrimidine (0.25-1 mg/kg) also reduces the amplitude of electrically stimulated excitatory post-synaptic potentials (EPSPs) in the hippocampal CA1 region in rats, an effect that can be blocked by the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT_1Aantagonist spiroxatrine.⁴It has also been used a phosphopeptide derivatization agent.⁶
