title: Synthesis and pharmacological investigation of beta-substituted pyrrolo derivatives.
abstract: A series of pyrroles bearing an ethanol- or an iso-propanolamine side-chain in the beta-position was prepared and their adrenergic activity evaluated. The absence of any appreciable activity suggests that the pyrrole ring is not suitable for replacing the phenol nucleus in derivatives possessing an adrenergic activity. Noteworthy is the amphetamine-like activity observed in amino-ketone (XXIII).
