Synthesis and evaluation of fluorinated analogues of monoamine reuptake inhibitors

The synthesis of two series of fluorinated analogues of monoamines reuptake inhibitors based on tertiary alcohols 2-substituted morpholines scaffold has been achieved through the incorporation of fluorinated substituent into 2-substituted morpholino ketones. Their binding affinities have been measured on different monoamine transporters.

Two series of fluorinated analogs of monoamines reuptake inhibitors have been synthesized through the incorporation of fluorinated organometallic reagents. Their binding affinities have been determined on different monoamine transporters.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slideHighlights
