In vitro assays on a series of cis- and trans-octahydrobenzo[g]quinolines indicated an unusual trend of affinities at the dopaminergic receptors and ct adrenoceptors. The trans N-benzyl analogues exhibited affinity at the alpha (2) as well as the D1-like receptors whereas their N-unsubstituted congeners showed a distinct preference for the alpha (2) adrenoceptor. Enhanced activity for the alpha (2) receptors was also exhibited by the cia N-benzylated isomers. These observations are interpreted by theoretical calculations.
