In previous studies we showed that 3-(substituted phenylethynyl)-5-methyl[1,2,4]triazine analogues of MPEP were potent antagonists of glutamate-mediated mobilization of internal calcium in an mGluR5 in vitro efficacy assay. In the present study we report the synthesis and evaluation of six 3-(substituted biphenylethynyl)-5-methyl[1,2,4]triazines (5a–f), and five 3-(substituted phenoxyphenylethynyl)-5-methyltriazines (6a–e). Compound 2-(4-fluorophenyl-5-[2-(5-methyl[1,2,4]triazine-3-yl)ethynyl]benzonitrile (5f) with an IC50 of 28.2 nM was the most potent analogue.
