title: Stereoisomers of 3-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-yl)quinuclidine: preparation and muscarinic receptor affinities.
abstract: The four stereoisomers of the antimuscarinic 3-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-yl)quinuclidine have been prepared by a method involving chromatographic separation of the racemic diastereoisomers as borane complexes. The relative and absolute configurations of the stereoisomers were determined by X-ray crystallographic methods. The crystal structure of (2'R,3R)-3-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-yl)quinuclidine.HCl.H2O contains two independent molecules with different conformations of both the quinuclidine moiety and the dihydrofuran ring.
