title: Synthesis of some tropane derivatives of anticipated activity on the reuptake of norepinephrine and/or serotonin.
abstract: A variety of tropane derivatives 14a-g were prepared via the reaction of the alcohol analogs 12a and 12b with substituted fluorobenzenes 13a-f. The prepared compounds were tested for their activity and selectivity toward the norepinephrine transporter (NET) and serotonin transporter (SERT) using yohimbine-induced mortality and 5-hydroxytryptophan-induced neurotoxicity in mice, respectively. All the tested compounds were found to be NE and 5-HT reuptake inhibitors except 14d which exhibited selective 5-HT reuptake inhibition activity.
