Abstract

Starting from fl-benzoylpropionic acid we synthesized 3-(aminomethyl) tetralones in which the amino substituent was d (N-piperaziny1)-p-fluorobutyrophenone (14), 4benzoylpiperidine (15), 4-hydroxy-4phenylpiperidine (16) or d (o-methoxypheny1) piperazine (17). The poesible dopamine antagonist activity of theae compounds was investigated in both 'in vitro” and 'in vivo” experiments. These compounds potently ...
