Cognition is a non-specific term; impaired cognitive performance may have diverse causes (= pseudo continuous); 2. Although schizophrenia may be within the family of ‘cognitive disorders’ this does not help with identifying it as a diagnostic entity; 3. Issues may exist in identifying the right target population to treat.

Psychosis as a phenomenon is common in the general population; 2. However, the underlying causes of psychotic experiences are diverse (see example dementia); 3. Hence, the efficacy of a drug against a symptom / symptom cluster in a specific diagnostic category cannot be extrapolated to another diagnostic category without proof.

Chile 2Departamento de Farmacia. Facultad de Química. Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Vicuña Mackenna 4860-Casilla 306, Correo 22 Santiago-Chile Abstract: The present review discusses the synthetic strategies of new ligands exhibiting mainly 5-HT1A binding affinities. Specifically we focused our attention in the synthesis of compounds structurally related to arylpiperazine, 2-aminotetralin, and benzopyran derivatives. Keywords: serotonin, 5-HT1A ligands, arylpiperazines, aminotetralins, benzopyrans. INTRODUCTION During the last 15 years, seven distinct families of 5-HT receptors have been identified (5-HT1–5-HT7), and at least Depression is one of the most common illnesses, 15 subpopulations have been described for several of these affecting up to one-third of all people at the same time.

A study on including two major forms of unipolar depression (i.e. major distribution of 5-HT1A receptors in the brains of various depression and dysthymia), adjustment disorders, animal species indicates that the highest densities are located subsyndromal depression (minor depression), seasonal in the hippocampus, septum, amygdale, and cortical limbic affective disorder (SAD), premenstrual dysphoric disorder areas.
