Z3517967757 (Z7757) is a piperidine derivative which acts as an agonist at the 5-HT2 family of serotonin receptors, first reported in 2024. It has strongest activity at 5-HT2A and lower affinity at the 5-HT2B and 5-HT2C subtypes. It was developed using in silico modelling to dock a large library of compounds against a 5-HT2A receptor model generated by the artificial intelligence program AlphaFold, and then synthesised and tested in the laboratory to confirm activity. It has two stereogenic centers and four possible isomers, but has only been tested as a racemic mixture.[1][2]
