Heterocyclic cycloalkanol ethylamines as norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors

A series of heterocyclic cycloalkanol ethylamines have been prepared to expand our norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (NRI) program. Synthesis of a variety of heterocycles identified (+)-S-21, a potent NRI efficacious in an animal model for thermoregulatory dysfunction.
