9-Oxaergoline is a low-potency dopamine receptor agonist related to the ergolines.[1][2][3] It is the analogue and bioisostere of ergoline in which the carbon atom at the 9 position of the ergoline ring system has been replaced with an oxygen atom.[1][2][3] A few notable derivatives of 9-oxaergoline have been studied and characterized, including RU-29717 (N-propyl-9-oxaergoline), 6-ethyl-9-oxaergoline (EOE), and voxergolide (RU-41656), which are all substantially more potent as dopamine receptor agonists than 9-oxaergoline itself.[3][4] Other derivatives, such as N-methyl-9-oxaergoline, have been characterized as well.[3] In addition to its dopaminergic activity, RU-29717 is notable in also having affinity for serotonin receptors and in producing a short-lasting head-twitch response in rodents.[5][6] The head-twitch response is notable in being a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects caused by serotonin 5-HT2A receptor agonism.[7][8] The potential serotonergic activities of 9-oxaergoline and N-methyl-9-oxaergoline do not appear to have been reported.[1][2][3][5][6]

The relatively low affinity of pergolide for 5-HT receptors compared to that of RU 29717 is in keeping with the lack of biochemical evidence of altered 5-HT function (Fuller et al., 1979). It has been observed that RU 29717 induced short-lasting head-twitches in mice (results not shown). This result, favouring a 5-HT agonist property could be of value for its potential therapeutic interest (Silbergeld and Hruska, 1979).
