ML398 is a potent and selective dopamine D4 receptor antagonist which has been used in scientific research.[1][2][3] It shows high affinity for the dopamine D4 receptor (Ki = 36 nM) and negligible affinity for other four dopamine receptors (>20,000 nM).[2][3] As such, the drug shows more than 100-fold selectivity for the dopamine D4 receptor over the other dopamine receptors.[2][3] It has been found to reverse cocaine-induced hyperlocomotion.[2] The chemical synthesis of ML398 has been described.[2][4] ML398 was first described in the scientific literature by 2014.[2]
