title: [Preparation and analgesic activity of tetrahydroquinolines and tetrahydroisoquinolines].
abstract: A series of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines and of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines were synthesised and evaluated for analgesic activity by both hot-plate and acetic acid writhing methods in rats. Te most potent compound was 2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-5-quinolinol (IV i) which was shown to be 1/8 and 1/50 as active as morphine according to the employed assay. The analgesic activity was shown to be associated to a not selective action on the CNS.
