Abstract
Depending on the selected synthetic pathway, structural variations of the neurotransmitter histamine led to mixtures of a,@-dimethylhistamines as well as to the corresponding pure optical isomers. One of these isomers, namely (crR, flS)-a, fl-dimethylhistamine, proved to be a highly potent H3 receptor agonist with exceptional receptor selectivity. The absolute configuration of the compound was determined by X-ray structure analysis of ita ...
