A thienotriazolodiazepine is a heterocyclic compound containing a diazepine ring fused to thiophene and triazole rings. Thienotriazolodiazepine forms the central core of several pharmaceutical drugs including: α-Hydroxyetizolam Brotizolam Ciclotizolam Clotizolam Deschloroclotizolam Deschloroetizolam Etizolam Flubrotizolam Fluclotizolam Fluetizolam Metizolam
Thienotriazolodiazepines interact with the benzodiazepine receptor site, they typically have similar effects as 1,4-benzodiazepines (such as diazepam) and triazolobenzodiazepines (such as alprazolam).
Thienotriazolodiazepines that are not GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulators include: Apafant Israpafant JQ1
