A library of new a-aminoamide derivatives containing a scaffold of substituted benzene were designed and synthesized. These compounds were evaluated in mice formalin model and they exhibited significant analgesic activities. However, the anti-allodynia mechanism of these compounds remains unclear; some of the target compounds can only moderately inhibit the sodium ion channel, Navl.7, in a whole-cell patch clamp assay. These results suggest that introduction of the moiety of substituted benzene to a-aminoamide derivatives can improve their bioactivity and further study is warranted.展开更多
