Eight monophenolic cis- and trans-4-n-propyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,10b-octahydrobenzo[f]quinolines have been synthesized and tested for central dopamine- and serotonin-receptor stimulating activity, using biochemical and behavioral tests in rats. The trans-7-, -8-, and -9-hydroxy isomers all elicited central pre- and postsynaptic dopaminergic receptor stimulation, while the trans-10-hydroxy isomer was devoid of dopaminergic activity but instead showed central serotoninergic activity. In all four isomeric pairs, the trans isomers were consistently much more potent than their corresponding cis analogues. The apparent presynaptic selectivity of the dopaminergic cis isomer cis-9-hydroxy-4-n-propyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,10b-octahydrobenzo[f]quinoline could not be confirmed due to the toxic properties of this compound. Central dopamine receptors (autoreceptors and postsynaptic receptors) can accept dopaminergic compounds with one of possibly two N-substituents being larger than n-propyl, if this substituent is properly oriented in relation to the rest of the molecule.
