A simple and efficient synthesis of novel 6-aminomethyl-tetrahydroindol-4-ones, which are butyrophenone analogues of molindone, is described. These compounds exhibit potent affinities for D-2 and 5-HT2A receptors in vitro. The most active compounds, 6d (QF 0408B) and 6e (QF 0409B), with pK(i) (5-HT2A/D-2) ratios of 1.32 and 1.17 respectively, show an antipsychotic profile according to Meltzer's classification.
