Sazetidine A (AMOP-H-OH & Saz-A) is a drug which acts as a subtype selective partial agonist [1] at α4β2 neural nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, acting as an agonist at (α4)2(β2)3 pentamers, but as an antagonist at (α4)3(β2)2 pentamers.[2] [3] It has potent analgesic effects in animal studies comparable to those of epibatidine, but with less toxicity,[4] and also has antidepressant action.[5] [2]

Saz-A is based on an 20th century agent called A-85380 that had Ki value of ca. 50 pM for the α4β2 nAChR.

Saz-A was able to attenuate nicotine self-administration in rats & holds promise for a new therapy to aid smoking cessation.[6]

The potential metabolic liability of the acetylenic bond, which may be oxidized to generate a labile, highly reactive oxirene, thereby possibly giving rise to toxicity, discouraged further advancement of Saz-A down the drug discovery pipeline.[7] The cited reference directs to a NNRTI called DPC-963. This has a structure that most strongly resembles efavirenz. It is noteworthy making the observation that the Sonogashira coupling has been used in the synthesis of a range of pharmaceuticals. In any event the alkyne moiety was replaced by a cycopropane along with diminution of the sidechain to 2 carbon atoms to yield a compound called 12a.

Additional attempts at modifying the alkyne moiety into an isoxazole heterocycle resulted in LF-3-88 & LF-3-80.[8] [9] [10] [11]

Finally, replacement of the omega-butanol sidechain in Saz-A with a phenyl gave a compound called VMY-2-95 [1434047-61-6].[12] [13] [14]

YL-2-203 is another codename that was disclosed as part of the drug discovery effort.[15] However, YL-2-203 did not cause robust decreases in drug and alcohol self-administration in the same way as Saz-A or VMY-2-95 did.
