Abstract
The preparation of butyrophenone derivatives of 4-aryl-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohex-1-ylamines starting from the corresponding 4-cyano-4-phenylcyclohexan-1-ones is described. Substitution was varied with both rings; both isomers of 4-phenyl-4-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohex-1-ylamine were characterized. Those derivatives which carried p-fluoro substitution on the butyrophenone exhibited hypotensive activity in the rat with diminished CNS activity compared to compounds lacking the hydroxymethyl group. The effect of substitution on the 4-aryl ring is discussed.
