MT1-selective melatonin receptor ligands: synthesis, pharmacological evaluation, and molecular dynamics investigation of N-{[(3-O-substituted)anilino]alkyl}amides.

abstract：:Designed multitarget ligands are a popular approach to generating efficient and safe drugs, and fragment-based strategies have been postulated as a versatile avenue to discover multitarget ligand leads. To systematically probe the potential of fragment-based multiple ligand discovery, we have employed a large fragment...
