The Mitsunobu reaction of some indan amino alcohols
摘要:
The Mitsunobu reaction, utilizing several phenols, has been applied to a series of indan amino alcohols. An interesting example of configurational retention as a result of an aziridinium intermediate was discovered.
The present invention provides novel compounds such as certain aryloxy indanamines which are useful as anti-depressants and as inhibitors of synaptic norepinephrine and serotonin uptake. The present invention also provides an improvement in the treatment of depression which comprises inhibiting synaptic serotonin and epinepherine uptake.
