Abstract
New benzothiophene arylpiperazine derivatives 8 (a–f) were synthesized as potential serotoninergic agents with 5‐HT1A receptor affinity. Preparation of the derivatives was performed by treating N‐[2‐(chloromethyl)phenyl]‐4,7‐dimethoxybenzo[b]thiophene‐2‐carboxamide (7) with a series of substituted 4‐arylpiperazines.
